Tonight I write from a campground just north of Columbus, Ohio. We're moving along toward home, we'll be at our lake on Sunday.
We really enjoyed the week with our former neighbors, our good friends in their new Kentucky home.

We shared happy hour and dinner every day, sometimes in the house and sometimes on their lovely screened in porch. Cindy made yummy banana muffins for second cup a few days. Dave and Walter did a bit of work together, the five of us did a bit of exploring the area in general and their farm in particular, we socialized with their friends at various places and were able to spend good, quality time together.

One day we drove into the small town of Sanford, KY. for lunch at the delightful Bluebird Cafe, a bustling farm to table spot.

Our time with the Pond's went by too fast. Until next time then, Thanks you three, we had a really wonderful time!
We sure did enjoy your visit and will hope to see you back again this way as your travels allow. There is nothing as treasured as dear friends ... Cindy P
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful visit with dear friends! Tristan and Hoopla are so cute.
ReplyDeleteI love that stone wall! Having the top rocks standing up makes the wall so interesting. Lewis is really keeping those guys working. I love the intensity in his pose...so darn cute:) I really need to visit this chocolate place. Oh, my, goodness is right!! What a great week with good friends:)
ReplyDeleteLooks and sounds like a wonderful visit! That wall is looking great, how fun to be a part of restoring that beautiful history. That Hawthorne looks so nasty!! Oh the chocolate......
