Beautiful Bounty

Last weekend I traveled up to Arcata,CA to visit my son who is attending Humboldt State University.(He is doing great!) It was homecoming weekend so it offered an opportunity for me to visit him when there was a lot of social activities going on around campus.It also didn't give me many opportunities or much time for photography.One particular event did stand out though. Lenore and I went to the Farmer's Market in downtown Arcata on the square. They had an outstanding market. The market went all the way around the square.In the center of the square they had a good band playing music and numerous vendors selling delicious food.After Lenore and I went around photographing the market we stopped and listened to the band and then we purchased two Mashed Potato Cones to die for. One had cheese and the other had everything. They were perfectly wonderful. God's precious love and blessings to all, chris To all of my followers: Please note that for the next several months my photoblog is going to be coming out far less often than normal as I have a book project I'm working on and it is going to be taking up a lot of my time.

  1. The autumnal market and the scenes you captured look very German! Although you wrote these photos were taken in California, they could have been taken on one of the numerous autumnal markets we have everywhere in Germany. Good luck for your book project,
    kind regards from autumnal Germany,
    Uwe.

  2. I love that pile of squash! For some reason....maybe because we love Butternut squash and enjoy it so often. Great pictures always! Hope your work on your book project goes fantastic.

  3. I love the photos of the veggies; they were making me hungry! The potato cones look really good; I'd never seen them before. I agree with Maggie Ann--great pictures as usual. I understand about not posting as often due to your book project; my husband wrote a book on financial stewardship which took about a year to write. Take your time with the project; we'll understand and wait patiently for your posts. Continuing in prayer for you and yours, Barb
