As we pulled into High Point for the International Home Furnishings Market* Friday, we were greeted by the encouraging sign:
FREE MARKET PARKING
and later, another directing us to the
FREE MARKET SHUTTLE
Okay, granted there is much government involvement in promoting and maintaining this twice-annual extravaganza, it was still a pleasant thing to see out in the wild, so to speak.

* Yes, I know the name just changed to "High Point Market" this year but I like the old one. Besides, the convention centers still have signs saying "International". There's a cost to changing corporate identities, you know.
