Hey, Fall is here-Falling leaves, falling temperatures, falling Summer shorts-into the drawer till next year. Well, except for my shorts. I wear them till December, certainly through Market season. It's a tradition. I did notice all the farmers bundled up in grays and blues and dark greens. 

Tree peeper season is upon us. High color in Northern Vermont-slowly spreading South-maybe 2 weeks till it gets to us.

 Looks a bit lonely. Crowd picked up later.

Dude wants to "regulate" marijuana. I don't understand. Everyone I know already "regulates" their own-In the backyard.

Plenty of green still on the trees, waiting to turn

Meteorological Fall has descended. Cool, breezy, sunny. We had bees for the first time this season-they loved my lemon bars. Also they like to dive bomb the powdered sugar in the teacake basket, then fly around like tiny white ghosts. I guess the sugar gets bees high. We had a great band playing bluegrass, with a touch of bluesy jazzy thrown in. I loved it. These guys should be the Market House Band.

So the weatherman said to expect rain and thunder storms-We got nothing but clouds, then clear skies. Do these guys get paid to get it wrong? 

Anyway, it was another great day, though no Chloe to help-me sad. Band sounded better than I have ever heard them-good whaling and shanty tunes. Seven more Markets left.
