Fishing boats Alma - low tide |
A hang-out day today. We got up and headed straight into
Alma for the farmers market where we treated ourselves to some home-baked
goodies, bread, veggies and meats. We stopped in town to take some photos of
the fishing dock area at low tide… the fishing boats are literally sitting in
the mud. Back at camp for noon we cooked up a rare bacon and egg breakfast with
homemade marmalade, homemade bread and cornbread… a guilty lip-smacking treat
and a far cry from our bran buds and sliced banana. Late afternoon Derek
decided to try out the local nine hole golf course while Janice stayed at camp
to catch up on the blog, read, laundry, and do some weight training. Derek enjoyed is golf game. The course was
rather hilly and challenging, but worth the trip. We set to BBQ’ing the smoked
pork chops we bought from the farmer at the market… oh my… they were like
butter, not overly smoked… just plain delicious. The evening spent by our
‘campfire’ reading and chatting.
