A visitor from the pasture behind us.
We left mid morning to make the 160 mile trip to Amish Country Campsites in Holmes county Ohio. Just a short jaunt of 160 miles and a fantastic day to travel. When arriving we found a quaint quiet campground that was very low key. No kids running around or dogs barking. When we checked in the lady gave us a map of the campground and circled all the sites that were available and told us to just pick one we liked and let her know where we settled. So the first thing was unhooking the car only to find the battery was dead, I had turned the ignition one click to far. A quick jump and it was ready to go with no issues the rest of the week. Now to pick a spot. We decide to back into a spot along the fence with a horse pasture behind us, I back in hook up the water and electric and then go inside to hook up the directv box. All is well and I get the satellite picked up and we are ready to go or one would think! I go out to get the site number to give the lady when I realized I had pulled into a spot NOT available on her map grrrrrrrrr, so we unhook and move to the spot next door, get everything outside hooked up and go inside to setup satellite. After 20 minutes of fooling with that I go out and look at this skinny ass tree that just happens to be in the right spot to block our view of the sky needed! So once aan we move to a site on the opposite side and get everything hooked up and finished. Finally I was able to give the lady our site after playing musical campsites. By the time we left no one ever did show up to take our original pick of sites >:-(

We spent one day at Roscoe Historic Village, a couple pictures from there. This town was used in the mini series Centenial.
Blacksmith shop
Print shop and broom maker
The doctor displaying an evil instrument to remove tonsils
Part of the experience is the canal boat ride as this town thrived due to the canal..
Another day was at Rolling Hills Ranch an aminal preserve..
