We had lots to do on this May Day!
The day began with a walk down to Forest Hill Park for the first Farmers Market after the winter break. Susu grabbed us breakfast at her favorite taco stand and we washed it all down with Blanchard's coffee. We also picked up some local honey, a pecan pie, strawberries and some herbs for Sue's herb garden.
Among the throngs that descended on the event we found neighbors Pam and Mike Schwartz, Dave Belde with twins Sophie and Lilly, (or is it Lilly and Sophie?), and Derek Andresen with Ian and Mia in tow. The kids provided free entertainment, dancing and singing, as we took relief from the hot sun in the shade of one of the park shelters.
After the market Sue, Nuala, and I walked over to the river and Nuala took a dip to cool off.
And after all that, some of us managed to squeeze a bit more fun into the day with a trip to the Diamond for a Richmond Flying Squirrels ballgame. Susu as you might have noticed, is in tight with the mascot Nutsy. Cheering on the home team with us were John & Ruth Ann Coski, Mike and Pam, ("Fast Hands" Mike, took away a souvenir shot into the stands between innings), Mia and Grandpa Tom.
