...until next year

Yesterday was the final Tuesday for our Farmer's Market this season and the vendors won't be back up here until next Spring. We'll miss having this weekly produce market just a block and a half from our front door.

Our garden is done for the year too...
...goodbye sweet summer.

C'est la vie!

A Drizzly Fall Morning...

...brings beauty to the eyes of beholders

Our morning trek began later than usual today because we needed to go to the bank and Post Office after they opened at 9 A.M. It rained lightly yesterday afternoon, and all through the night, letting up this morning as we made our way into town under a sky of broken clouds and rainbows.

As we walked along the sidewalk, approaching the signal light at the entrance to the Interlaken Shopping Center, where the bank, the Post Office, and Von's Supermarket are located, I happened to notice this leaf lying on the concrete.

Yes, it's just one fallen leaf clothed in raindrops, but it's the one, of thousands, that caught my eye and the diffused light made for a very nice image.
