This last weekend was the first weekend since last April with no market so we took advantage of that and went to the mainland for the first time since Christmas. We took the pumpkins fromdaughter, Jennie's Waldron garden to them and brought boxes of vegetables to be shared among several family members. it is so very nice to be able to share the season's bounty with the family.
We got to visit with all three of our granddaughters and at least talk about the newest one who is planning to join us next May.
And, of course, we went to the Bellingham Farmers market where we bought some lovely pottery from 1 Heron Pond Pottery and a couple of Bella de Boskoop apples to try. The name alone was enticing and they were really tasty. We also ran into a former San Juan Island marketer who is making gorgeous willow baskets from willow she is growing on her farm, Willow Bend Baskets. That was really neat. We haven't seen her for ages and ages.
