Six of us piled into a Highlander for a trip to Lehman's, originally founded in 1955 to stock non-electric equipment and supplies in demand in the middle of Ohio's Amish community. These days the Lehman's store here in Kidron is patronized not only by local Amish and...

It's where Chipotle's sour cream comes from, an Amish family dairy farm certified for its humane animal care. We were invited to watch the milking this afternoon. We were impressed with the care the family took with the process from the milking of the cows and the...

Friends alerted us to the fact that the Amish Country Doughnuts truck would be open for business this morning so Amanda and the two of us headed out for a sweet experience in Sugarcreek, Ohio. Even just ordering these huge doughnuts at the counter is a fun experience....

Bletchley Park

Bletchley Park

It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
