Saturday

Even though it is cloudy today, it is a better day than yesterday...we had rain, wind, thunder and believe it or not, HAIL! I came out of the mall and the parking lot was covered with the icy stuff. Granted it did melt almost immediately, but it was a sight.
Thank heaven my purchases took away the sting of the weather.

Skagit Valley

Beautiful weather in Seattle on this Oct. Saturday. A friend(Carol) and I took a scenic drive up to the Skagit Valley(Mt. Vernon, Burlington) to visit a farmer we met at the Ballard Mkt.
Lovely farm....free range chickens running around , happy cows grazing in the field, turkeys fattening up(if they only knew). Sustainability is the name of the game. We bought meat and eggs raised right there.
Glad to be healthy again.

Had a lovely trip to MN. lots of good wine and food. Still trying to forget our music night out,but
that is another story for another time ;>)
Delightful weather, attended a high school homecoming game and watched Lucia in the marching band. lots o' fun.
Kelly and Stacie and I shared a delightful bottle of 1990 Quilceda Creek Cab. one of the best wines I have ever drunk.
