Finding Friends And Catching Up

 Hey Friends,

We spent Wednesday and Thursday in Missouri. On Wednesday, we were in a place of business. I literally ran into some longtime friends that are from Louisiana and Oklahoma. 

It was so good to see the Gautreaux family. We spent some time catching up with them! I snapped a few photos. It was funny, because we crossed paths with them multiple times! 





Yesterday, on our way to Oklahoma, we stopped along I-44 to catch up with a portion of the Missouri Boggs Family. It had been a long time since we had been able to see them. Hopefully we can see more of the family soon!

We were short on time, but is was was wonderful to see everyone that we could. We sure do love these precious people! It is a blessing to count them among our family!

I will close with several pics from our Missouri Boggs stop. 

See you tomorrow.

56th Annual Saurkraut Festival Pics

 Hey Friends,

Our Hometown is Waynesville, Ohio. The second weekend in October is the biggest weekend of the year. It is the annual Saurkraut Festival. 

The town has around 2,600 residents, as of 2020. Normally, around 300,000 people are in Waynesville for the 2-day festival. The event includes all things Saurkraut and handmade crafts!

We had not been home for any of the festival in 7 years. I was due for my Saurkraut Festival fix. This year, we actually caught a couple of hours on both days. We really enjoyed being there. 

Mom and I snapped some pictures to share with you. Lauren Osborn shared the funnel cake pic because I forgot to take one. Dodds church sells the funnel cakes. They were so yummy this year. 

On Saturday, it was curb-to-curb people. I could not really shop the crafts. I found a parking spot out of the way. I put away some good food Mom brought me. We headed home early to avoid rain. 





















Sunday, the crowds were lighter due to weather. We just went to grab lunch then headed home for a nap.








See you next time. 

Odie
