Sunshine

Woke up to a beautiful (but unforecasted) sunny day.  My original plan was to take my bike and ride a 20k trail at our local conservation area.  Common sense prevailed however - since I haven't been on my bike for a couple of years and engineering guy just put a new tube in the tire for me it seemed wiser to take a shorter trip, closer to home.  I biked to the bank to get money to go to the first farmer's market of the season.  I actually biked right by the market but the dogs and I walk down every Saturday morning so I didn't stop.

My farmer's market scores today were asparagus (yummy), homemade bread, organic spinach, and homemade soap.  I just missed out on the lettuce.

It occurred to me while walking down with the dogs how grateful I am that I can walk with them.  It's something I take for granted nearly every day.

Now I have to choose between indoor work and yard work.  I know I'd rather be outside but the dust bunnies are starting to have babies!

We scored some asparagus at the farmers market today, too. I also got some strawberries and scones. I love this time of year now that the market is back open.
