Summer barns

One of the highlights of the summer season in the Land of Delight is the weekly trip to our Customer Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm. The trip is special for three reasons: We get to see Farmer Jim, Farmer Judy of Sweeter Song and our friends. We collect our “share” of seasonal fruits and vegetables with a dozen eggs, a pound of coffee or a chicken tossed in for good measure. Finally, the trip to the CSA farm is another excuse to take a drive down French Road toward Cedar and take in the sweeping landscapes and the majestic barns that make one’s shutter finger twitch. There will be another one right over the hill or around the corner. “Look at that one!!”
