Continuing with our Summer vacation....
We went to Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. I love this area, so rich in history, so beautifully
preserved!
The Shenandoah River runs on one side:
And the Potomac River meets the Shenandoah on another side:
We ate at the Secret Six Tavern on High Street, the food was delicious and reasonably priced.
Vince and I, had the Southwestern Shrimp Salad:
YUMMY!
It we ever go back, we'll definitely eat there again!
*****************************
We were also in Leesburg, Virginia. I remembered from reading The Cottage G als' blog about the store they run in Leesburg. Vince took me there so I could check out the store in person. If you love the cottage style, this store will make you love it even more.
I adore the aqua color of the entrance door:
They were so gracious in allowing me to take pictures inside, thank you so much ladies!
I loved so many things in that store, now as I look at other pictures I took, I wonder why I didn't buy certain things in those pictures. Quite simple, we didn't have room in the van for more things. However, I did buy a big tin star, which I love!. And believe me, it was quite the adventure driving around with it!!
This store is on the top of my list for when we go back to this area again.
*****************************
We also took the kids to Dinosaur Land in Winchester, VA. They have these concrete replicas of different dinosaurs, along with some information pertainig to them. My kids had a lot of fun there!
There are many other dinosaur sculptures, you'd think that you have stepped back in time!. Great place for kids and dinosaur lovers.
I have one more post about our vacation, and then I'll post about stuff I've made and apple picking, Halloween around the house etc.
Check back for those, and I'll try not to be away too long!
A big Hello to Grace, and to Sarah.
Take care of yourselves and hold your loved ones near!
Hugs,
Rosa
