Bird in Hand and Baseball

On Friday, we drove to Bird in Hand to check out the Farmers' Market and the charming shops in the heart of Amish Country. We saw a variety of horse drawn vehicles, farmers in the field with mules and horses, cutting hay and plowing. The farms were the most manicured landscape I have ever seen. After days of rain, everyone had decided to do laundry. We saw clothes lines rigged from a back porch to the barn full of clothing on a pulley system. Every Amish home had one. All the farms had wonderful gardens and beautiful flowers. We ended our day by driving down to New Market, MD for dinner with our kids and grandkids








Saturday, we drove down to Fredrick, MD to see J.T. play ball. He played second base and very well, I may say. We were really proud of him not only how he played but his sportsmanship. He is 10 years old and will have a birthday next month.
