| Sister Beth came to the cabin for a couple of days. She and I are well matched. We honor the other's photo eye. We like cemeteries, churches, back roads, rust and peeling paint.
Friday after lunch we meandered back roads to Trenton. We stopped for cemeteries, cows, photo ops. We drove back 1-1/4 mile to an Amish home to buy huge, fresh black berries. This was sort of serendipitous as Beth had told me that grandson, Jake likes blackberry pie for his August birthday. We limped home and helped Lanny make supper of pork, corn on the cob, cucumbers and garden tomatoes.
Next morning we gathered up neighbor Bill and took off out the other direction, hitting the plank bridge, one lane roads, two other private lake communities - one even smaller than Twin Lake. We were going to eat in Jamesport but could only find one restaurant serving $12.00 lunch buffets and we all knew we couldn't do that justice so we high tailed it over to Trenton and ate $7.00 Chinese buffet and we all got enough to eat including Himself who still isnt sure he likes Chinese food.
After lunch we turned the horses toward home and wandered our way to the Amish store where we bought a little produce and PaPa asked the crew of good looking Amish young men where were they headed (to pick up hay) and they answered politely and were courteous and respectful.
Beth stayed over again Saturday night, got up and hit the road by 8 am. She was headed home to get to church. I deemed her the winner of the photographs this trip and we planned another weekend in October.
