Whidbey Island Farm Tour



No doubt the chill of Fall is upon us but fortunately the sun was shinny and winds minimal both Saturday and Sunday. In support of Whidbey Island Farm Tour, four members of the Whidbey Island Camera Club setup a display canopy at Horses Tales Nursery in Oak Harbor.

Sales were sleepy creepy slow but we had an opportunity to small talk about the latest electronic gadgetry, family and to connect with other vendors. Seeing many visitors with the new Nikon D5000 and D40 aroused our teacher instincts. We had an in service on fill flash and micro-photography.

Two members, including me, received a lesson on oriental artichokes. I know it’s not a big deal but I always thought artichokes grew in Safeway.

Happy Whidbey Island Farm Tour Day! Oh yeah, careful of ducks crossing.
