A Visit to Gilbert & Liberty Market

I took a little drive the other morning to our neighbor to the west - Gilbert Arizona.

I'd been hearing about Liberty Market and stopped in for some breakfast and coffee.

I was impressed with Liberty Market. It had a modern coffee bar feel in a relaxed atmosphere.

My breakfast was good but the coffee was better.

There was a nice crowd at about 10 am on a weekday.

No, that's not me in Paris riding a scooter through the busy streets. It's one of the bathroom stalls at Liberty Market. What a crack up. Each stall has a different theme and when you shut the door music turns on.

I love themed bathrooms. Barrio Cafe in Phoenix has some pretty cute ones.

A Graffiti stall.

A disco themed stall?

The back wall of the Vespa bathroom.

Someone has a good sense of humor. And hey, as a bonus the bathrooms were clean! What a concept.

All in all my visit to Gilbert was good and made all the better by visiting Liberty Market. We sure could use a place like this in Queen Creek / San Tan Valley. Hint, Hint.

Too Hot to Post

Yikes, this heat has made me so lazy. I haven't posted in a while. I blame it on the 100+ weather we have been having. I'm begging for more monsoon rain.

Went to Sushi Creek today for lunch. Nice and cool in there. Excellent food. Tried their special today the Roadrunner roll. Not bad. Still love the Bigfoot.

If you haven't been there, try it - you'll like it. They even have an I hate sushi menu.

Naming of Area flawed?

I for one do think that the re-naming of the area was done too quickly without proper widespread notification of the residents. Click here for a recent opinion by another area resident.

OPINIONS VALUED HERE

I may not post all comments in the body of an actual post but this one is a rebuttal to this previous post from another commenter.

Who are the 200 people Sup. Martyn supposedly queried to move forward with Bella Vista, AZ prior to this vote? A whopping .0025 percent of the 80,000 residents of this unincorporated area.

This area should remain Queen Creek until it incorporates and ALL are enabled to vote on a community name.If it weren't for the newspaper articles and a couple of HOA newsletters with info. on this vote it wouldn't have been known to the dismal 2,000 people that voted. A whopping 2.5 percent of the residents.

Did you know Sup. Martyn already mailed in a letter to the USPS on June 11th requesting with the zip code change that a name change to Bella Vista be made? Talk about the wagon leading the horse... Give me a break. This was a scam. Thought he could sweep it under the rug. And let's see just how much more taxpayer money is wasted when a "revote" occurs during the election cycle because people will be outraged over the new name "San Tan Valley".

Another politician all about himself, way ahead of himself. Doesn't think he needs to consult others on his actions, even when it affects them.
