Enjoying My Life

I have started taking the attitude that life is what you make of it.  You can either be miserable or start to enjoy life.  I have been trying to find fun in everything I do.  For example, yesterday we went to a farmer's market.  You think, what's so much fun about that.  Ah, but we found several things that just made our day.
This particular farmer's market also has a flea market.  While walking up and down the aisle of vendors, I happened to look to my right and saw two horses galloping in the pasture beside the flea market.  Ah ha! I thought to myself.  This is a photo opportunity I am not to lose.  I walked over to the fence, and stood there focusing my camera.  The horses saw me and came running over to the fence.  They must have thought I had carrots to fed them.  Unfortunately, I only had a camera in hand.  My husband came over and they nuzzled his hand hoping for something to eat.  Nope, he didn't have carrots either.  They did pose nicely for me so I got a couple of photos there.

Later, we came across a cousin of my ex-sister-in-law that we had met several months ago.  He is such a unique character -- and I say that in the most loving way.  His house in town is filled to the rafters with finds from this very flea market.  While we were chatting with Mervyn, one of the vendors came over and asked how come he wasn't buying anything.  Mervyn answered, "because I don't have any more room to put things!"

I then ventured over to the animal auction holding pens.  I love cows so thought I could get a couple of photos of those up for auction.  No such luck.  They were all the way in the back of the barn and it was too dark.  They were going to auction next so I couldn't even go into the barn.  Since I was not a buyer, I couldn't get into the auction either.  So no photos of the beautiful cows.
However, I did get a couple of shots of the cutest little goats.  One of them tried to eat through my bag to get to a sack of sesame sticks I had just purchased.  Guess he smelled them right through the bag!

After purchasing a lot of fresh vegetables, some freshly baked breads,  and a new, smaller, case for my camera.  We drove home very tired but simply alive with all the sights and smells we had witnessed that day.
