Saturday we ended our week’s visit in Greenville, OH with our friends Gene and Barbara. While Gene prepared his boat for two weeks’ fishing in Canada and Duane prepared our rig for travel, Barbara and I headed to Greenville for the Annie Oakley Days sidewalk sales. Our main goal was the big sale at the KitchenAid Store.
While Barbara’s granddaughter picked out items for Barbara to buy for her (granddaughter’s) bridal shower, I enjoyed looking around the store. Upstairs the new mixers and other gadgets were showcased. In the basement I found a nice display of original mixers
and a case full of “refurbished” mixers. Barbara explained that the majority of these are returns of gifts for reasons ranging from didn’t like the color to wanted a different model.
Also downstairs were baskets and baskets of different kinds of hand gadgets like peelers, spoons, mixing bowls, etc.
When we emerged from the store we saw the people lined up for various foot races.
One just finishing featured these tutu clad runners. I loved the guy in the black tutu.
When we returned we ate lunch with our friends then bid them goodbye. We drove 50 miles mostly east to our new campground outside Fletcher. After we got settled in we hopped the bike for a ride to Longhorn Steakhouse north of Dayton where we met Duane’s oldest brother and his wife for dinner. Later we followed them home to see their new condo and visit for a while.
Brother Dennis, wife Pat and little brother Duane.
After a very nice visit we rode home in the gathering darkness, admiring the lingering sunset.
Tomorrow, more riding and visiting.
Louise and Duane
