Rainy Alaskan Day

I have been sitting here listening to the rain dancing on the tin roof watching as it drips off and accumulates into the flowing stream that leads to great puddles for the rain loving ducks.

It will clear for a bit and give me hope and then beat heavy again this time with a gust of wind.
Those plans I had for today ... are drenched!

Yesterday I used all kinds of muscles, mostly glutes, to pick strawberries for the farmers market. At least the strawberries are safe on my table as opposed to getting waterlogged in the field!

Last time I was at the market in the rain the table were soaked and the berries and our art work. Plus... I was freezing. It is 50 degrees now and I have a fire going in the cabin.

People are at the fair anyway although some will still attend the market looking for vegies and probably my strawberries and eggs. Maybe next week the weather will be better. It will be the last market of the year.

I will just plan some home school for the children, process some currants and create some more art pieces.
