Kelly and I hung out this morning, and when she left after lunch I went to work. From there I picked up Chrissy and took her to work, then came home and cut the grass. Now — I’m typing!
I’ll recap yesterday’s Free Museum Day (Ligonier). We went ‘to the top’ and started with Compass Inn. We went through the Inn and all the outbuildings, then walked across the road to a little Country Cupboard gift store – I bought 3 small sample bars of soap to try. From there we walked across to the Pie Shoppe and had a piece of pizza for lunch and some Snails! Yum! I took a lot of pictures at Compass Inn, and Kelly sent me the ones she took.
We got down to Fort Ligonier and watched the French troops drill in the side field, then walked to all the out buildings. It was just starting to rain when we finished outside so we hustled inside and went through the museum. I read lots of little bits of information about George Washington, which I enjoyed.
We decided not to go to the Railroad Museum because the parking lot was across the road and it was mostly muddy (experience from other years). We drove on to the Lincoln Highway Experience, which I particularly like, and walked through there. Often I sit through the movie about how it was made, but it was pretty crowded so we bypassed that and walked through the other room. Went we went back to the 1938 restored Diner section Kathy and Paul were there. Since they had a longer way to get there from church they were just starting. We all had pie (cherry or apple) except Kelly, and they left to go to the next museum and we headed home.
We loved driving up there as kids.

After supper we finished the binders for 4H and then watched an old CD of family movies from my childhood. We did a lot of laughing. Kelly offered to be the videographer if Kath and I wanted to recreate some of the scenes. They were copied on the CD from old projector films. So funny! The best thing was seeing Grama and Grandad Crooks on the movies!
