Mark’s “stash” from yesterday’s visit to one of his favorite places, the small farmer’s market in downtown Vancouver, Washington, just over the Columbia River from Portland.\

His bounty included sirloin beef jerky, fresh sweet blueberries, a huckleberry scone, oatmeal cookies, a bag of locally made almond toffee, and a box of miniature sweet peppers. See why he likes the place?
