Pictures from our weekend at Roscoe Village

Roscoe Village is a perfect fall location.  The Apple butter festival had the streets full of vendors and fall was in full bloom.  The buildings were hidden by the vendors so I didn’t get any good photos of the buildings but if you google Roscoe Village there are lots of photos of the historic buildings.  The Village was run down and in deplorable conditions and the people in that area were wonderful and restored the buildings for all to enjoy.  The area is beautiful with the changing leaves and the countryside and all the gift shops are decorated for fall.  It puts you in the mood for crisp sunny days with hot cider and good company!

Perfect opportunity to see some great primitive decorating.  I love taking what some would call junk and making it into something great!

A photo of a home on the edge of Roscoe Village.  A Victorian beauty in the rough.  I would love to see the inside of this home.

Beautiful Fall Weekend in Roscoe Village

It’s that time of year!  Every year we go to Roscoe Village for a long weekend.  It is the weekend of their Apple Butter Festival. 
Roscoe Village is a restored 19th century canal town along what was the Ohio Erie Canal.  We travel through beautiful country taking the Ohio back roads to get there.  The colors, fields and barns are just gorgeous this time of year.  Below are pictures of our drive.  The back roads just put me in a good mood, eye candy that I never tire of.

Fall seems to go by so fast.  You notice the beauty and then it is gone.

Early Fall

My husband loves canned hot peppers...so as I do every end of summer I made him a few jars. 





 
Last Sunday it started pouring rain while the sun was shining.  I went out looking for a rainbow and found a double rainbow that you can see in one of these pictures.




Fall is just beginning in Northeast Ohio.  We have a beautiful tree line inbetween two fields and the trees are starting to change.  One is actually a shade of purple!!

Evening time with the humming beauties.  These guys are buzzing around the feeder from early morning until late evening.
Summertime bounty...the tomatos are green and are beginning to turn red.  My hubby built these garden boxes several years ago and it really helps keep the garden neat and tidy.  We plant a salsa garden every year..lots of tomatos and peppers!

The other side of the shed.  I love this!! I love old metal yard chairs...or hotel chairs as I have heard them called.
