MORE SUMMER 2020 in OHIO

Gary went to Men of Faith this morning at Dutch Haus in Columbiana so I decided to sit  at the computer with my music CD's on and try writing a Blog.  We have not kept very busy except to read.  Gary has washed down much of the outside of the motorhome, but I sure have been lazy!!
We have been working through our doctor and dentist appointments as our main focus.
Friday, July 3rd , we spent the morning at the Hartville Flea Market.  We only spent $2 but did have a good look around before it got too hot out.
We have since stopped at a couple yard sales.  One was in Boardman and it was a good thing that I had Gary turn around as I got a real find of card making rubber stamps!!  It was well worth the stop!!

 

Gary has had breakfast with his best friend and I have been able to begin meeting with TOPS friends again with masks and social distancing.  So after the weigh-ins, we move on to Centennial Park to visit.
On July 9, we met with RVing friends, Ralph and Gayle for lunch in Newton Falls.  They did not get to leave Ohio this past winter because of illnesses so it was good catch-up time for us.

We also got to spend an evening with church friends, Randy and Patti at out motorhome.  Patti is going to make seat and arm covers for the motorhome driver and passenger seats.  We need to prevent any more wear and tear on the originals.  We are seeing more wear on this bus!!

We made a trip to Merrick Gallery at New Brighton PA to see what is going on with the Gallery's plans for the summer Art Show.  Gary got confirmation that they will set up July 22nd for the month long show beginning July 26th. 

He then got busy at the condo getting his drawings ready (framed and labeled) for the show.  He will have 36 drawings in the show.  He is so pleased that this is finally happening for him!!  He had wondered if it would even happen, but it was always his dream!
Yesterday we went to Richard and Lynn's for burgers and dogs.  Had a good visit, but much too short.  We just don't do evenings out.  But Rich and Richie have to sleep all day as they are working nights.  We don't want to drive after dark.  Are we getting older or what??
On the way there we stopped at a new Used Furniture store in Salem and a Thrift shop at the Methodist Church in Columbiana.  I was impressed with my few finds at the Thrift!  And we educated the gal at the Furniture Store as she did not know what a Barrister's Bookcase was!  That is the only thing that we are still looking for, for the condo.  Maybe one day soon we'll find one!
Gary is back and drawing, so guess I had best draw to a close and fix lunch.  You all take care!!
