Piney River
Nelson County, Virginia
After a long Winter’s hibernation Saunders’ Farm Market in Piney River is back open for the season. Actually they opened the doors the last day or two of May, but it’s this time of year when things begin hopping as the peaches start coming in!

Music is sometimes played at the market on the weekends and is a favorite for folks dropping by!

Nelson County, Virginia
Thanks to Judy Serkes of Woods Mill for today’s photo! Monday was a pretty cloudy day until late in the afternoon, but very little rain actually fell during the daytime hours. Rainfall amounts around 1/2 inch fell before daylight but that was about it. Chances for scattered showers and thunderstorms remain in the forecast for the balance of the week right into the weekend. Warmer temps move back in by mid-week.

Though rain will not be falling all of the time, we will be dealing with it for the foreseeable future in the extended outlook.

The skies looked liked they might open up at any minute, but they didn’t and the 2009 Habitat For Humanity Golf Tourney went off without a hitch. The clouds actually made for a cooler day of play!

Afton
Nelson County, Virginia
Veritas Vineyard & Winery’s start to the 2009 Starry Nights was a bit of a soggy one for the first part of the evening, but folks took it in stride and took it inside until the showers passed. After roughly 30 minutes the rains ended leaving a wonderful evening of wine and music by King Cadillac.

Huge thunderstorms moved out of the Afton area around dark, just in time for the music to kick off at this year's Starry Nights.
