Opening weekend at the Farmer's Market

We got down there in between the rainstorms, but we didn't stay too long because it was windy and cold. Ralph wanted to get either some jerky or some chicken pepperoni from Stewart's, but between the long line and the windy conditions he decided it wasn't worth freezing for, so we'll get it next time we go...hopefully we'll finally get some REAL spring weather. Here's the line at Stewart's!!



Because our weather has been so crummy, lots of the crops are still weeks away from being ready to sell, but this market always has a lot of other interesting things such as bakeries, jam makers, salsa makers and loads of other things on the block:

Handmade pottery



Handmade chocolate, hand tempered even!!



Flowers, more flowers, and even more:







Even oysters (and fish of course)



And the lavender lady:

Thank you for another little glimpse into Olympia. I guess I do miss it sometimes.... especially when I hear it was 82 degrees!!! It rarely gets that warm up here. Beautiful, but not as warm!!!!
Miss you guys! Congratulations on the jobs.
