One Thing I Did

Todd has certainly been in the spotlight at our house lately, and I remain optimistic and hopeful about the direction and treatment I've chosen for him. Unfortunately we won't know if the Chinese herb and tincture is working until it doesn't. Time will tell. 

In between vet visits and work, I carved out time to do a few other things. 

One thing I did in May was to go to Lancaster Pennsylvania. My long time friend, Sid lives there, and I've not seen her since before the pandemic. We became instant friends years ago when she was also a president of the neighboring Golden Retriever Rescue. She's now housebound and unable to drive, so it was good to spend the day with my friend. 

I stayed in Lancaster for a couple of days and since I can't stay with  my friend, I stayed in the nearby town of Intercourse (yes, that it's real name) in a popular spot called Kitchen Kettle Village. It's a walkable village of local crafts, quilters, and all other kinds of shops. My favorites are always the 'foodie shops.' Can you tell why? 😊

But I stayed in one of the Inn's in the Kitchen Kettle Village, that was above one of the shops. 

With no elevator access to my room, the steps helped to ease any guilt I may have felt when I indulged  in the local fare. 

While there, I made time to go to a favorite local nursery for this year's bedding plants and a few vegetables too. Black Creek Greenhouse is truly one of the best in the area. 

I ended my trip to Lancaster with another longtime friend at an all women's conference in downtown Lancaster.

It was a much needed break for me.

But no matter what, it's always good to get home!
