Wapakoneta, Ohio

Between the buildings on the main steet, Auglaize Street, is a small park area with this statue by its entrance.
This area is behind the main downtown area. The Farmers Market is held here each Saturday depending on the weather.
In the downtown area, there was an old time barber shop, a lovely old fire station, and old movie theatre, plus container after container of flowers along the side walks.



We took a walking tour of Wapakoneta's historical residential area and I took lots of pictures. Here are a variety of the lovely old homes in various styles--Victorian, Craftsman, bungalows, etc. All of them were beautiful in their own way, some needed a little work but all had such character.







We leave for Davison, Michigan on Thursday. We are holding fast to the motto "Happiness is the journey, not the destination". More later from your very Happy Travelers.
