Love your goodies from the Findlay show. Nice weekend for the Kraut festival and beautiful temps for a bike ride. We just sold our Harley a few months back. The hubs is disabled now and can't ride. Sad to see it go.
Have a great day.

Well, I love the Christmas tree, the Ohio State Buckeye chair and the painted crock! Nice stash :o)
It's great you younguns get out and go like you do in the nice weather. Be careful on your next trip ridin those motorcycles. Sadly enough you have to be the ones to watch out for the other drivers.
Hugs~Carol
