I just love the soft, golden quality of light on a fall afternoon. My newest plein air painting buddy, Peggy, joined me a couple of days ago to paint some pumpkins at Bailey's. What a great afternoon!

Wow, we have been so spoiled with gorgeous weather this year. I spent two spectacular mornings last weekend painting at Bailey's u-pick farm in Snohomish. Standing in amongst the sunflowers painting I heard many languages spoken and saw lots of families working hard harvesting food.
 
 
 
 
Don't these look yummy!
 

 
 
 This woman packed her wagon beautifully. All the squash blossoms tucked in the corner were particularly lovely.
 
 
 
 
A cute and clever, little pumpkin proudly displayed in front of the stand. A gal explained they cut the name into the pumpkin while it was still small. The process is called scabbing. Bleh, not a very nice name for a such a cool look. :)
