Enjoyable leaf peep tour

Post by TWrenn » Sat Oct 19, 2024 8:51 pm

After postponing last week due to weather today our club did a great leaf peeping tour to an Amish-Mennonite area. We stopped at several local stores owned and run by them. Showed the cars to lots of people too! Had great lunch at BW3 in Ashland. A great little old general store stop in Olivesburg where I picked up an antique barometer/thermometer from 1840 there at a good price. I had 112 miles, Jeff had 119 as he lived furthest away. Totally great day and great tour drawn up by clib Prez Mike Parker. Enjoy a few pics!

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the great pictures! You could not have had better weather for your tour around here.

The Olivesburg General Store is bigger now than I remember it from back around 2008-10 when I would pick up step kids from around the corner.

With Laura's health issues this summer we have not gotten out too much, but managed to get to the cruise @ Laurel Square in Brunswick yesterday. About 75 miles round trip which is quite a few for "Stubby" my off-topic AWB Gasser!

Anytime you are out on a drive & find yourself over this way (Cook Rd. off or SR 60) stop by!!!!

God Bless
Bill
