The oldest house in Gettysburg, Dobbin House was built in 1776. It’s as old as the Declaration of Independence. Today it is Dobbin House Tavern where one can enjoy fine dining in candlelit elegance. Beth served us a sumptuous prime rib dinner at Table 44 in the Library, pretty cool for a couple who met in a library and is celebrating their 44th anniversary! After sharing a triple layer chocolate cake for dessert we slipped downstairs to the tavern/casual dining area then upstairs to the mini-museum, and mid-stairs to see the cubby holes where escaped slaves once hid when this house was a stop on the Underground Railroad.

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
