Ohio 2016

September 18, 2016


Went into Jefferson to have breakfast, excellent diner called the Jefferson Diner.   While there, it started raining cats and dogs, so we decided to just stay home today and relax.   Think Bobby is ready to go home!!!!   Only about 2 weeks and we'll be there!!



I'm going to make something with some of the apples, fried some for dinner last night, OMG excellent.   Today, might try an apple tart.

It' pouring this morning, so we decide not to do anything for a while.   Around 11, it stopped so we headed towards Ashtabula, OH.   Along the way, we stopped at a couple of covered bridges, they are famous for them here in Ohio.



While in Ashtabula, we went to their annual BBQ festival.  Not what we anticipated, it's more like a county fair, where the BBQ contestants have a booth where they sell their products.   No sampling or watching them cook their ribs.   Disappointing for us, as we love watching and talking to the cooks.   We ate an elephant ear and a corn dog, neither was that good. 



We then drove to Brandt's Apple Orchard, there we picked up 25 lbs of Honey Crisp apples for $1 a lb...big score!!!   Sampled some of their products, including an apple cider slushy, which was delicious!



On the way home, we saw several more covered bridges, including the longest one in the USA at 613'.   Granted it was built in 2008 but still very impressive.

We are slowly heading west, feels good to know we'll be home around the 5th of October.   It's been a wonderful trip, but we are ready to be home.



We traveled to Jefferson, OH today and are staying at an RV called Millbrook Outdoor resort.   It's out in the middle of nowhere, to be exact, 6.5 miles from Jefferson.   But, it's on our way home.



Today we didn't do much, traveled and few chores, but just relaxing for the remainder of the day.
