Mid-Week Excursion

~~~

Wednesday, November 10

~~~

We had a lot of stops today, so planned our day accordingly. First we stopped at Nate and Abby’s to return an eraser to Anthony that he left at our place the week before – when he was doing school work. Then I took an Amazon return to a local hardware store where it will be picked up.

We had promised Gloria (granddaughter) that we would stop by the pharmacy where she works to say hi. It is not in our usual travel area, thus we had not done it before.

I think it was in June, when I was telling her about our midweek excursions and she asked us to add her to one of our travel days. We were busy with the yard over summer and did not plan these special, short trips. Now we are thinking up ideas again for the fall and winter.

After leaving her, we went to Country Table (Mount Joy) for sandwiches. I chose haddock. Cerwin had a cheeseburger.

Before leaving, we went to the next room to their bake shop to buy a few items.

It was a pretty, sunny day and the leaves were still rather pretty. I thought you many enjoy our drive to the next location – which was to pick up my Vitamin D prescription at a Lititz Pharmacy.

These mules were pulling a baler – just over a slight hill so I couldn’t get a full photo.

We took a back road, scenic route toward the village of Clay to get ice cream at Fox Meadows Creamery.

After getting the ice cream, we noticed a farmer harvesting soy beans along Route 322.

Ready to turn toward home.

Home again

Our bake shop purchases: Small Mince and Pumpkin Pies and two Raisin-Filled Cookies.

Cerwin and I shared a raisin cookie after getting home, then shared the second one with coffee the next morning. They were delicious. After eating the last one, Cerwin said, “Why did we only get two.” 🙂
