A Stormy Saturday

Yesterday our first Farmer's Market opened for the season.  It was a great market with one exception.  The storm blowing through created a bit of a challenge for some of our tents.

As artists we have quite an investment in our merchandise and outdoor events always create a risk.  Wind, rain and hot sun can damage our merchandise in the blink of an eye.  So, after holding onto our tent for a couple of hours we gave in and placed our art back in its boxes out of harms way.  I trust next week the weather will be kinder and we will have a new and improved plan.

Fortunately the huge down pour of rain held off until early afternoon.  We were blessed.

Today it is in the low sixties.  The clouds are hanging low and the mountain peeks are rising above them.  It is such a lovely sight to behold.  The above photos were taken a few minutes ago along the Madison River.

Someone said snow is in the forecast for mid-week.  This season is starting out to be very different from last year.
