Peaches & Fireworks

After what seemed like forever, we finally harvested our home grown peaches this weekend! Sabbath afternoon after a yummy lunch of Chinese food with Todd, we each enjoyed a bowl of fresh sliced peaches fresh off the tree.

Later that afternoon we joined our friends Jen & Gil for a nice afternoon walk by the river followed by supper at The Mudpie Cafe. We then walked out onto the Market St. Bridge overlooking the Riverbend Music Festival where we listened to the Bachman-Cummings Band concert down below us while we waited for the spectacular Riverbend fireworks show!
(The above link is a video taken from the "walking bridge" (Walnut St. Bridge). In this video you can see the Market St. Bridge in front of the fireworks (where we were). We were standing by the blue drawbridge section (to the left), and strangely enough we happen to know the people in this random YouTube Riverbend video!)


I think we quite possibly had the best view in town, with the Riverbend festival to our left and the fireworks to our right! (map)
