Apple harvest

From last week's Greenmarket.  Maynard Farms has an assortment of apples grown right here in the Hudson Valley.  I'd like to bake a pie with each variety and do a tasting!

Lance is on the case

I have been a viola player for... hm, about 40 years give or take.  All my life, I've lived with cats who like to sleep in my viola case while I play.  I just recently got this wonderful Bam case from my cousin Frank who's a local luthier.  This is literally the first time I've opened it up in the house and it didn't take Lance 2 minutes to walk over and settle in.  I didn't even have time to but the neck bridge on!  It's nice to see the tradition continue.  I guess.

Halloween parade

Yesterday was the last outdoor day for the season for the Schenectady Greenmarket.  Next week, the vendors get to move indoors at Proctors.  Since Halloween is so close, the Greenmarket held the first annual Halloween parade.  There were about a dozen of us who dressed up and walked up and down the market place.  And at the end, we each got an apple!

Greenmarket from afar

I don't often get to the far end of Jay Street, but we were driving downtown and I found myself looking at the Greenmarket from the other side.  Snapped this one through the windshield.  I was the passenger, so it was quite safe!

Milkweed pod

This is how the milkweeds end up; leaves gone, pod brown and dry.  Finally, when the seeds are ready, the pod splits open and the seeds float off on the wind.  The next generation.
