Gentlemen, at my Friday morning breakfast routine at Boyd & Wurthmanns in Berlin, Ohio!

A Father’s Legacy

While waiting for taxi customers, I found a library to sit at and work on “A Father’s Legacy” book. It is a book in which a Father answers questions concerning his childhood, to help his children get a picture of what life was like, then! I was given this book as a gift, probably 30 years ago! It will get finished. I had put many of the questions in my computer, so I could write things out, editing, etc. and then put the answers into the book in perfect penmanship, and with the same color pen. Well I did deviate with the same ink idea, and I suspect some of the words will be hard to read, since some of it was cursive, and written while holding the book on the steering wheel of my taxi van! Have a good day, leaving a legacy for someone.

The Amish farmer who bought this farm in 1998, is glad he decided to continue with the apple orchard, instead of dozing the trees, and having a dairy farm!

Nostalgia

Brings back memories of growing up on an Iowa farm, where we raised purebred Suffolk sheep!

I did a U-turn to go back and photography still building at the corner of 104 & 53 in Oak Orchard, NY. It caught my eye because the corner wasn’t square. Looking on Google Satellite View, I see it is an L-shaped building, and the L is not a square angle.

Mallard Carvings

Carved in December 1986 for Dixie/John!

I found these in Bradenton Florida!

Not sure why I am posting this on Groundhog Day!

Well-Worn Hitching Rail

My daughter-in-law did a great job of preparing this tasty dish. It was for our youngest grandson’s 16th birthday celebration!!

A fusion of Elk meat chunks and a classic North Indian mild curry made with yogurt, tomato paste, ginger, garlic and traditional Indian spices.

Temptation! NMF

The holiday season is over. How did you handle it? Are you now on a diet? Have you made New Year’s resolutions to eat better, or to lose weight? These delightful chocolate goodies are tempting for those that like sugar, chocolate, or peanut butter! The “buckeyes” are for peanut butter lovers. I am not so keen on peanut butter, unless it is mixed with karo syrup or honey! Of course that adds calories. Hoping this New Year sees you healthier, lighter, and in good spirits. Remember, looking at photos doesn’t add calories. Apologies to those folks that couldn’t handle the photo, and had to rush out and buy some chocolates. We bought them because it was a fundraiser, and we gave them away!

Country Sunrise

Mugs, Mugs, Mugs!

I had lunch with my friend at this unique restaurant that has been in operation nearly 60 years. He has been collecting these mugs, which number 3,000 plus! I had their Hot Beef Plate which was delightful!
