Beautiful Amish Country...........


What a fun week I had, a good friend and I went to Southern Ohio and visited all the Victorian and country stores that line the streets of Middle berry, Charm and other little towns. We shopped all day and got up the next morning and started all over again. I wanted one of every thing I saw, and of course you have to decide just which treasures you are going to take home with you. The stores and shops were of course all decorated for the Autumn season and I love that look. The season when the leaves start falling and pumpkins can be found everywhere.

Marilyn and I have been friends for 25 years, we use to work together for Toledo Public schools. I can remember when we use to say...........some day when we retire we will have the time to shop and work on crafts and do all the fun things that we both enjoy. The time has come, I am now back in Port Clinton and we are just an hour apart so......we can shop till we drop..which happened last week... We are going to get together and work on Christmas gifts, and it is always more fun when you are talking about old times while you are working on that special gift for family and friends. I was going to share pictures of the pretty country and the shops and a few treasures that I found but...............I do not know how to download the pictures from my new camera to my old computer. I will work on that problem tomorrow and share with you the beautiful Amish Country. I am way behind in reading blogs and leaving comments so I will take the time now to sit and have tea, while I enjoy one of my favorite past times. Hope every one had a good weekend and have a happy Monday...........Sharon K

Isn't it wonderful sharing time with a good friend? I had the treat of being with my best friend of over 40 yrs on our cruise. What fun!

How fun! Those shops all sound so delightful! And to work on Christmas gifts already, you are off to a good start! :o) I look forward to seeing your photos of Amish country, as I have always wanted to visit an Amish community.
Blessings!

I just adore this area. We always stay at an inn there and love it so.

I am enjoying reading about your visit! I am glad you had such a sweet time and have such a dear friend to do this with!

Hugs,

The two of you must have had a wonderful time in Amish Country.
We visited a couple of years ago.
I have a post about it on my blog.
Come on by and read it!

What kind of new camera do you have?
I'm looking for a new one.

Blessings,
