One of the sheer pleasures of riding my bicycle aimlessly about GNV is that, inevitably, I come across something completely unexpected and…well…truly odd.
For instance, on my way to First Mag Sunday afternoon, I happened to come across the GNV Oddities Market at Bo Diddley Plaza.

Not to mention stuffed animals. And super heroes.
There is a table of big knives. Not far away from the spooky soy candles exhibit.
Oh, and a small crocodile who was born in Miami but now resides in a reptile preserve in Melrose. Where he rooms with a big, cuddly yellow snake.
And, listen, if you are squeamish about cuddling live crocs and yellow snakes, you can always buy a yarn versions of either or.
Seriously, look up the definition of odd and you’ll see the following illustration:
I love this town.
