Lamb's Yacht Center
We had a wonderful Mother’s
Day weekend. We’ve been working hard all week on redoing some of the teak on
the boat, but we took the day off on Saturday. We went to the Riverside Art Market, a large farmers market and art show held under the Fuller Warren Bridge
at the end of the Northbank River Walk. The river walk is a two-mile-long
pedestrian/cycling path that connects the north end of the Riverside Avondale Historic
District with Downtown. The market was one of the best farmers markets we’ve
been to, just about anything you’d want, plus entertainment and lots of food
choices for lunch…a good place to spend the day. After lunch we walked along
the river to downtown…it was a nice break from all the work we’ve been doing.
The kids gave me a gift
certificate to Orsay, a French bistro, in Avondale for Mother’s Day. Being away
from family is very hard on days like today, but our kids always think of
something to make it special. Stan continued his work on the teak today and I
even did a little work, but the highlight of our day was the wonderful dinner
we had at Orsay. The food was amazing; we started off with a Thai rock shrimp
appetizer followed by scallops for me and trout for Stan and Black Forest cake
for dessert. We had a magnificent meal...thanks to our amazing kids.
Plenty of shade and cool breeze off the river makes this a great place for a farmers market.
