Last day in Yachats and Essence of the Garden Soup

My heart is heavy as we pack up the last of our belongings preparing for the long drive back to Phoenix.  Maybe heavy is too strong a word, bittersweet might be a bit more appropriate. Worked on the garden most of the day yesterday and finished off with this delicious soup from the proceeds.
