Conversation with Joseph

I made it down to the Farmers Market this morning. Beautiful sunny day. I set up the box on the northeast corner of Court Ave and 4th. While I was speaking, a man came up and listened intently. After some time, he cane up to ask a question.

His name was Joseph, a Jewish man from St. Louis,  Missouri. He said, "I'm Jewish."
What followed was a really neat experience for me.

FINALLY!!! Click HERE for the link to that discussion with Joseph. Go to the upper right side of the screen and hit the PLAY arrow to start it. I was going through some of the tracts we hand out, and was finishing up with the Titanic collectible postcard tract. Joseph shows up at the 7:29 mark on the audio.

The photo below is a 360-degree panoramic view from the top of my soapbox. (Click on the photo and you can view it bigger.) The crowd is thinning out because the Market was just about to close (closes at 12 Noon). It was packed at 10 AM when I got there, and that was a pleasant surprise...this day was also the first weekend of the Iowa State Fair, and I expected attendance at the FM to be down. If you ever take a panoramic photo, turn the camera in the opposite direction of the traffic. I did not, and that is why you see some odd things in this shot. (Example: the lady in the bright blue shirt appears once on the far left, and three times toward the right side.  Also, see anything strange about the couple walking away from the camera in the middle of the photo? Whoa!)
