Great country tour

Post by TWrenn » Tue Jul 21, 2020 4:39 pm

Art & myself love impromptu tours. Today he said "let's go to Peru" (Ohio that is!) So off he, myself and Jim went, after we met at the township hall near my house. Great day, great touring all over the middle of nowhere, and a neat stop at a new coffee shop/antique shop in this tiny little place out in the boondocks. Called Pioneer Spring Marketplace. Neat mom & pop place. My favorite. This building dates back to 1836 with quite a varied history. Anyone in the area needs to make it a "T stop". Hope my pics arent sideways!! Sorry if they are. So here goes....

Your pictures turned out beautifully. Isn't it great that there are places like that? And nice of you to support them

Thanks Rich. Yes it is great to have these places.
We intend to have a club tour there come fall with spouses when it cools off a bit.
And it's great having guys able to "get up and go" at a moment's notice.
We even made the usual ice cream stop on the way home, but get this, it was CLOSED!! What ice cream place closes for a day in the middle of summer!! :roll: So we went to Rural King and got stuff there instead. Great ride all day.

Tim's pictures don't do that place justice there are a lot more rooms and things to see, just when we thought we saw it all the manager would open a door and there would be another room. All in all a very good day touring. It always amazes me what we find when we are out just riding around in our T's, things you don't see or realize are there at 50 or 60 MPH. Good day today Art and Tim Thanks. Jim

It's great that there are T guys close together who like to actually drive their cars. There are probably at least a dozen Model T's in my county, and mine are the only ones I ever see being driven.
