Mary's Farm -- jigsaw perfection

In the late summer, this afternoon view from the parking lot of Mary's Farm in Surrey reminded me of the idealized worlds we see in jigsaw puzzle pictures.

Normally, I do jigsaws only in winter, but last week my neighbour had one out on a board in her kitchen. Of course, I couldn't resist her invitation to help finish it. We took it out onto the deck and worked there in full sunlight, imagining ourselves in the perfect world portrayed in the puzzle picture.
