Missoula has several farmer's markets dotted around town and people have their preferences. This one is"our" market. It's an easy walk, except when we buy more than we can carry home.
Like Siberians, on the first truly warm day of the year we hardly know what to do with ourselves. We started out in the early morning wearing coats, and then had to peel them off to reveal our pale, pasty skin. It's been a long time since we've seen the sun!
It took 45 minutes to get a cup of coffee, but we don't go to the Market for speedy service.
We go for the kuchen.
A lot of towns have Farmer's Markets, but there probably aren't many that have an old locomotive right in the middle.
Missoula becomes a charming little village when the sun shines. You never know who you'll run into. We frequently bump into neighbors and friends at the market who, like us, are splurging on pastries and buying more locally grown produce than they can comfortably carry home.
looks like a good time!! Can't wait to see you guys next month.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures! This looks so much like the Saturday market in Twisp we enjoy with Amanda and Tom during the summer.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it nice to do some "normal" things again? Eat a pastry and carrot for me!!
