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.

Beach Cottage Ho

 Hey Friends, 

We left Richton, Mississippi, before 5 AM yesterday. It was time for us to get out of dodge before Hurricane Isaias arrived. 

Mom was concerned about storm-related traffic. All in all, things were smooth. We were making excellent time until the Nashville area. That's where things went south. 

We lost an hour in traffic for no apparent reason. Then we diverted around Nashville proper. 

Things dragged on from there. With only 4 stops total, we made it home 14 hours later. I was so thankful to see the lights of home. 

Thank God for protecting us! I'm grateful that He helped us get home safely!

Bro. Scott Morris reported to us yesterday afternoon. They got the tent down and packed away yesterday morning. That was an answered prayer!

Now it is time to hibernate. See you tomorrow.

Away We Go

 Hey Friends, 

All is well! We are on the road to Mississippi. Yesterday was a full day of packaging and trip prep.

I forgot to get a post ready for today.

This morning, as I was getting in the car, I remembered my blunder. 

Please keep us in your prayers. Thank you in advance! We are anticipating a great trip. 

I will leave you with a couple of pics from lunch yesterday. It was good to spend a few hours with Mamaw and Papaw. 

Bye for now.

Morgan Family September 2026

 Hey Friends, 

I hope you are doing great. We are in prep mode. We will be heading to Mississippi tomorrow. 

Saturday, Mom and I spent the day in Hillsboro. It was good to catch up with some of our family. It is a busy season, so I am thankful to see my family. 

I snapped some pictures. I hope you enjoy a peek into our family time. 

Gran and Papaw came to visit us yesterday. Here are a few pics from lunch and Sam's Club. 

Thank you for reading.

Family Dinner Meetings

Hey Friends,

Last week, we met up with some of our family. I love any time I get to spend time with family! 

We met up with some of the Morgan crew at a local Buffalo Wild Wings. The visit was amazing, and the food was really good. 

Below are a few pictures from our family lunch. 

Then another time we got to meet up at Alcapulco som of the Boggs clan. We were going separate directions, but you have to pause for dinner. Family, salsa and great food made the rainy day super fine. 

It was raining, and I did not get a selfie with everyone. Steve, Karen, Mamaw and Papaw were part of this dinner. I will end with a few pics from dinner. 

See you tomorrow.
