last New Denver market for 2014

Friday was the last New Denver market of the season.  Small and wet, but still lovely.  The voles have been fewer and Mick and Ruth's squashes have been thriving.

BC folksinger, Jon Bartlett, weighing Mick's fine squash
Eloise Charest and her cedar baskets.  I bought two more!
Eloise has given our family a DVD of the documentary "Jamais sans nos enfants" ("Never without our children"), the story of the orphanage that she, her mother, and her sister created in Cambodia.  Fleeing the Khmer Rouge in 1975, they insisted that the 60+ children be allowed to come to Montreal with them, and they did.  I'll bring it on our travels.
