a fall festival

a couple weekends back, we went to the miyama pottery festival.  this was our 3rd year in a row to go!  I was so happy our day was filled up with sun-filled strolls, handmade pottery and crafts, yummy festival food, and antiques (this is where I picked up my kodak instamatic for 500yen!)
