This lovely tree is on the Portland State University campus and it gets more beautiful each year. Today I enjoyed a walk to the Saturday Farmer's Market on the park blocks and I want to share the beauty of fall colors.
The market is much different in the fall and winter - it's more basic and it features only fruits and vegetables that are in season. Also offered is fresh caught fish and salmon that is fished by the local Native Americans. I was surprised to see strawberries and blueberries still for sale but the most prolific items were tomatoes, corn, squash, pumpkins and apples.
We're enjoying perfect fall weather with temperatures in the mid to high 60s and an occasional shower so trees are dropping leaves and the ambiance of downtown has slowed to a more gentle pace.
Roger and I LOVE fall weather in Portland! Timberline is already getting dustings of snow so we're ready to embrace cooler weather, fireplaces, and comfort food..............
The golden walkway is on our condo property. I have lovely memories of walking Bella through the leaves that she loved because she could kick them and they made a rustling noise. Our sweet little girl is so very much missed but happy memories continue.........
