in the light of the sun

the sun was shining in the sky and there was not a cloud in the sight.

wonderful green shoots are everywhere.

mr. downey woodpecker was delighted with the

weather and the new suet.

mr. red-winged blackbird seemed to sense the peace in the air.

our garden angel was happily sitting in the sun.

along side the pretty faced pansies.

newly potted marigolds( a gift from an admirer of abbey at the market.)

mr. american goldfinch was basking and supping at the same time.

the sun was shining and a cool breeze blowing.

so off to the farmer's market we went.

we love to buy from our local farmers and artists.

we are part of "csa" community supported agriculture.

this our first year and it is with beaverdam creek farm.

we are very excited to be joining in this time around.

we have met lots of farmers at the market and we

made the decision to support this one.

we will be getting a share every week come harvest.

abbey is quite the little shopper at the market...everyone

is quite taken with her.

we bought handmade soy candles. peppermint for abbey.

lime/coconut for me.

dh and buster brown talking with local beefalo farmers from crabtree farms.

a friend of ours was having her baby's portrait sketched.

there were hand knitted scarfs and hand thrown

pottery. it was all glistening in the sunshine.

abbey's is fond of blue. she picked a blue/black/purple scarf.

there were potted gardens to take home.
it was such a lovely day with the sun's rays warming us...

being together...getting fresh food...in my book perfect.
