A wonderful day

Whatcom creek this morning
What a beautiful day! I woke in the best mood and here it is, noon, and I'm still feeling great. We ladies met for a nice walk in Whatcom Falls park this morning, with filtered sunlight and cool temperatures. Just perfect, if you ask me. I also noticed on my blog that I have reached 200 followers on the sidebar app. First time! You may not see it because it does vary, but it's never before had that magic number on it.
Young buck
On the walk through the park, this young fellow joined us for a short time. He displayed no fear of us, since so many people walk through the park I guess he knew we were harmless. If you look closely you can see his fuzzy antlers, which is why I figured it must be a buck.
Raven Breads
Then Lily and I headed over to the Farmers' Market and I bought some of Sophie's wonderful bread. That's her leaning behind, setting up for the day. She hauls all that stuff to the market on her bike with her cargo trailer. She is an amazingly accomplished person, and I love her Volkornbrot (I call it my Vulcan bread) which is made with only rye flower, sunflower seeds, and salt. Yum!

  4. That bread looks amazing. I would love to try some. Farmer's markets have such wonderful offerings. I've not been to any of our farmer's markets this year. though. Just seems that I've got other things going on on those days. Maybe soon.

  9. What beautiful bread!
    We were surprised to get rain this evening. It was too cool to have our BBQ dinner outdoors even before the rain.

  14. Now I would go for that bread. WOW, we have nothing like that here. I have been recuperating from rotator cuff pain and due for a cortisone shot this Wednesday. I haven't been online much, but hope to get this arm business settled soon. I'm all for the operation, but Doctor's here are so busy, it might take more time???? Anyway, nuff aboot me, lovely photos and congrats on your 200. lol
