More great weather today and we have a plan, head to the
Keady Farmer's and Livestock market, Only about 40 minutes from here and the 6 of us hopped in Gerry's truck, Bill was the navigator taking all the back roads.
Got here about 9:30 we headed out our own and agreed to meet at 11 am. It has been many years since I have been here and forgot how big this markets was. We wandered about for about 90 minutes and could have sent more time, But did get some deals that we were looking for.
 |
some really good deals and great product here,
I will post more about here later |
 |
all these small plums on the left 2 bucks
huge beefsteak field tomatos 5 bucks |
Got home for lunch, and one slice of these amazing tomatoes does one sandwich, so fresh we really love these garden fresh tomatoes when we can get them.
 |
| now this is a Toatsed tomato sandwich ! |
Now just hanging out here, Gerry tealxiing in the hammock and Tucker under there wondering what is going on?
At 3 pm our Good Friends Rob and Pat came over for Happy Hour, but the big deal was today is Rob's birthday.. He's now as old as me and hey that's old !
As soon as they arrived the skies opened up with some major rain, wind, thunder and lightening, even hail. Just for his Birthday I guess. So into to Bill and Patsy's trailer we go, can't stop this party !
