A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.  Inspired by SouleMama



Peaches and Peace

Posted on | July 11, 2011 | 5 Comments

Ahh, the Oregon Country Fair.  I spent the majority of my weekend at this annual event, astonished by the sights and sounds of the once-named renaissance fair.  It's a celebration of art and music, peace and mankind.  I can assure you it's not your typical Palin, American style fair.












Even our sneaky babe decided to join the fun, sporting ninja wear.  


And yes, I'm swooning over this lime sized human.  Every day I swoon; over and over again.  

So that's it.  The OCF is a success once again.  It's our third year in the valley, and only our second year visiting the fair.  I remember when we first moved here I visited the Saturday Market (a downsized version of the fair, still astonishing).  I knew the moment I walked the streets I belong here.  

Unfortunately there are haters, plenty of which I work with. And to them I say - what's wrong with a little peaches and peace in this world?
