A Weekend in Ohio

This last week Ian had training for work in Ohio so I flew in later in the week and met him there.  On Friday I drove down by myself to Kirtland, Ohio and saw some sights that are important to our church's history.  Then we drove to Akron, Ohio and spent the weekend with his Grandparents.  We had such a great time!

Saturday we spent touring Amish country.  Our first stop was the biggest hardware store I have ever seen called Lehman's.

Inside I found my favorite pear tool which looks like this.  I have been searching every kitchen store I could think of to find this and finally found it here!  
Our next stop was the Ashery Country Store where they had spices for really cheap!  We walked out of there 30 minutes later with a bag full of spices.
We made our rounds to the Guggisberg cheese factory and Der Dutchman for a home cooked dinner of baked chicken and potatoes. 
We are looking forward to our next trip to Amish country when we can buy some wood furniture.
