Our New Puppy Buggy

Well I'm not sure I should share this, but my husband and I are going out of town for three nights. We're going to Southern IN, to Little Nashville, in Brown County. It's a very popular destination in the fall because there are so many trees that turn beautiful colors. There's tons to do, little shops, flea markets, antique malls, winery, and a state park. We had planned to take our two Maltese dogs, Bailey and Roscoe. They are very social and most importantly portable. Less than ten pounds per pet "kid". We were going to leave our 15 lbs. Schnauzer with my step-son. Alison would have missed us and we her, but three dogs on vacation come on... where's the sanity and relaxation in that?
Stop, halt! The plans have changed, dear hubby wants to take Alison too. Three flippin dogs in one car for four hours and in a tiny hotel room. Yikes. Not to mention he does not want to leave them in the room nor the car, me neither, but what are we going to do? Purchase a doggy buggy... We did, we're going and here it is. Pictures to follow after our trip on Wed of the freaky family. Have a great weekend. Trudi M.


P.S. If your interested in one, we got it on Ebay. Great price, great service. (LOL)

We Have A Farmer's Market!

Our town just opened it's first Farmers Market in years. We have all been looking forward to this for about 5 years and the time finally arrived. My hubby and I went on Saturday and boy was it crowed. Mind you it was it's first weekend to be opened. We live near Amish country and all the surrounding towns have tourist attractions, and our town finally decided to join in. That said, it will be nice for out of town visitors, but the locals are all thrilled too. The prices were good, the food was good, they had nice plants, and crafts. I can't wait to see how it evolves. They are also adding all sorts of attractions around it. It's going to be quite large when it all said and done. We spent three hours there and really had a good time on Saturday. Believe it or not we had Mexican food for lunch and it was great. We bought meat, pie, cookies, rolls, and some signs for our yard. I'll have to so pics. of those later. There's a link to the site about the American Countryside Farmers Market on my sidebar. It's quite interesting because it's now the biggest peg built building in America.
