Well, yet another November week has slipped away…
The leaves have
nearly all blown away and the pastures are losing their verdant color. Late fall has come to the hill.
The weather and his “helpers”
are really slowing the project. He’s hoping to get it finished before the
winter weather sets in.
Ellie is "safety supervisor" and really didn't like that back tire up in the air like that |
Gus has "inspected" every post hole and has re-dug a couple of them |

Then, almost before we knew it, it was time to pack up the
trailer for the last Market of the season.
packed and ready to go |

We had a great day! It was our second best “last day of the market” ever. A big thank-you to all our customers for making it possible for us to make a living at what we love.
a full stand at the beginning of Market (it was a challenge to keep those baskets full) |
near the end of the day very few leftovers this week! |
At the end of the
Market, some of the vendors took the time to have a group lunch. It was a nice way to note the end of a great
Market year. Maybe we can make it an annual event.
It looks like this season was #2 in all-time sales. Congratulations to all the vendors who work
so hard to make the Market a success!
Today is cold…real cold.
It was 17* at morning choretime and the wind is blowing quite fiercely,
so it feels far colder. It’s a good day
to sit by the woodstove and plan out my Thanksgiving menu.

Hope you’re enjoying a warm, wonderful and
Happy
Sunday!

That last market of the season looks such a lovely occasion.
ReplyDeleteNot sure how much those dogs are helping.
As usual the cats have the most sense, staying in in the warm.
