This afternoon I decided to take an hour or so stroll to Down Town Medford and take some quick pictures of the place. There was also a Pear Blossom Steet Fair that I heard about, vaguely, and wanted to check out as well. Apparently it is a big deal here, bringing in people to participate in there run all over the United States. I love local festivities don't you?
----> Did you know that Harry And David started out with Pears first?
It all started out on track, at least I made it down town without getting lost. Thank you handy dandy phone navigator. But before I got started I was distracted by the smell of coffee (who isn't) at a wonderful little coffee shop called Down Town Grounds. I've visited this place once before when my husband and I were in a mad search for a place to live. The place just made us feel more at home, and had a lot of local stuff and information you can take home and explore. Like The Rogue Valley Messenger ,which has a lot of local yummies.Happy and contented with my coffee I walked around the fun fair with all the handmade stuff and the food that makes your mouth water even if you are full. Drifting along I actually forgot to take pictures till I started walking home! #shorttermmemoryloss #wheresmybrain.
I guess I got sidetracked thinking about the name of the festival Pear Blossem..... and found more interest in taking pictures of the beautiful blooming flowers around town. This time of year is so beautiful, and everything smells so good! My trek back home took three times as longer then it did getting to down town! So I present to you the fruits of my labor. (haha fruits.. get it... because a pear is a fruit!)
Oh and yes I took and spent a lot of time editing these photos so if you please, will you credit me?
