Our Trip to Ohio Amish Country

Although Grandma Bird's BROWN ancestors weren't Amish (that we know of anyway), she did fall in love with the countryside in which the BROWNs and the Amish settled, and she never misses a chance to travel back there to a whole different world. This time we went there to attend a reunion with our STROUSE cousins. Of course, the trip ended way too soon, but we shall return there one day!

Seeing as the photos wouldn't load here, I'm inserting a link that you can click on to view them at photobucket. Just click here.

Be sure to check out this link to one of Grandma Bird's newest favorite place: 55 West & Co. Stefanie rocks!!

How does your garden grow?

Despite the lousy weather, our garden is growing quite well. The flowers help to make it appealing while we wait for the tomatoes, zucchini, green peppers and melons to develop. Can't wait!! I know that you have already received email about this posting, but something went terribly wrong, and the photos wouldn't load. If you are interested in seeing our garden photos just click: here.

The garden is getting tons of rain today, so it should grow like crazy the next time that the sun shines! The little zucchinis are already forming!
