The Rain, The Park & Other Things

Is this Heaven? No, it's the Bellingham Farmers Market.

Located on Railroad Avenue at Chestnut Street is one of the largest farmers markets in the Emerald State. The permanent Market Square includes a covered structure built from steel recycled (of course!) from a local bridge. The market runs April through December. A great place to shop for fresh, local food, local arts and crafts, flowers and plants, and food vendors.

When did I become such a fan of Farmer's Markets? Things like this kinda sneak up on you. The one in Medford (OR) was nice, and the one in Santa Barbara (CA) is always a treat. But here...strolling in short sleeves on a perfect afternoon, being part of the community...it's different.

"I could have sworn it was Heaven. Is there a Heaven?"
"Oh yeah. It's the place where dreams come true. Maybe this is Heaven."
