A Day Away

We have a hard time getting away from Happy Acres during the growing season. However, we often take a day away to Nashville, Tennessee to see a concert at the Ryman. We saw Alison Krauss and Union Station Friday night. If you’ve never heard her or them, here is a clip of one of my favorite songs. I love the Dobro in this song.

 

We always stay overnight and the following morning we’ll go by Whole Foods. Since we’re pretty much stocked up, the last two visits we’ve hit the farmers market instead. I brought my camera this time to take pictures of all of the wonderful produce. We have farmers markets at home but nothing on this scale.

Since Hubby grows most of our food we were only there to pick up some stuff he doesn’t grow. We don’t need tomatoes but I just had to take a picture of that display!

Picked up some peaches from this stand. Even though we’ve bought a lot of local peaches, they are all either eaten or frozen. These are from South Carolina – not quite local.

I was strong and didn’t buy any of those cookies!

After making our purchases we were off to our favorite place to eat breakfast -Marche Artisan Food. It’s housed in an old car showroom!

As my Aunt Irene used to say, “There is nothing like a good cup of coffee.”

I had the omelet with a side of French toast. Yum!
