24 June 2017 Roadside Stands

During each year we stop for a number of items at roadside stands. Berries, honey, corn, flowers, garlic, and plants are just a small part of the list. We were passing through the tiny borough of Mill Village and stopped for strawberries from an amish farmer parked at an antique store. On our way out of Mill Village we stopped at a permanent roadside market for hostas. We've purchased produce and plants there before and were hoping to buy plants to build a small hosta bed in an available space in Ohio.

We also made a stop on our journey at a gamelands for few puzzle cache hides. Summer has settled into the woods so there are fewer flowers, but we enjoyed the stream and were able to spot pyrola in bloom.

Lizzie and Phineas have become quite a pair. They play often and both have a fondness for downed logs. Adopting Lizzie in Michigan with very limited socialization time for the pair was a bit of a gamble, but they are gentle souls and have bonded well.
