Spring Break '09
Continuing our annual tradition, we went tent camping. We decided to go the same place that we went last year for a couple of reasons. One was that the rates are very reasonable and the second was that that there seemed to be something for everyone to do. The place is in Winesburg, OH and it's called Amish Country Campsites. During this time of the year, the tent area is basically empty. This year it was completely empty and last year it was mostly empty. During the day, we visited some of our favorite places in Amish country and tried out some new places. We did spend late afternoon and evening at the campsite with a fire. Instead of bringing food with us we decided to buy local food. We went to Troyer's Trail Bologna and bought some Trail Bologna directly from their store. We visited Heini's Cheese Chalet and got some samples as well as buying some bricks of cheese to take with us. We got some baked goods at an Amish Bakery and some other supplies at Troyer's Market. It worked out OK but I think we may make some adjustments next year. Wednesday night/Thursdsay morning was very cold. Later we found out that it had gotten down to freezing. Thursday night/Friday morning was significantly warmer. I still like it a little warmer for sleeping but we survived. I'm going to try to add a few pics at the bottom of this post. Who knows where they will end up though.
