   Here’s some photos of  ‘The Crossroads’ Shopping Center in Santa Maria California.

   It’s a pretty large shopping area with your usual huge ‘anchor’ stores.

   Ten years ago these areas were all bean fields, or fields uncultivated for years… now it is easy to forget it was once farmland.

   This is a ‘big trip to town’ for us nowadays.
