Nephew on Dan’s side of the family got married on Saturday at a lovely venue.
Bally Spring Inn in Barto, PA.
The wedding party used the house to get ready and the barn below had been converted to space for the reception and accommodations. We stayed in a lower level room.
Here's the nephew.
And here's the new Mrs. Brown surrounding by the rest of us who are also Mrs. Brown. My sisters in law on on each end and the wife of another nephew is 2nd from left. That leaves me second from right.
We drove down a few days early to meet friends at a BnB outside of Lancaster: The E.J. Bowman House.
Here's the second course of breakfast the first morning. First course was strawberry shortcake.
What the house once looked like.
We spent a lot of time in this parlor. Everything about the place was super comfortable.
There was even this puzzle waiting to be done. Janet and I obliged and completed it.
Dan noticed the table - my puzzle table is the same style!
Though we have plenty of covered bridges to see here at home we took a tour of 5 in the area. It got us out in the countryside to see the Amish farms.
I also got to swing by the house my dad called home in Lancaster (below) and the house my mother grew up in and the one I visited where my maternal grandparents moved to (too dark by that time for photos) outside of Lancaster.
It was nice to experience the summer temperatures. We've returned to cool ones. As I write this on Monday evening, it's in the 40s with windchill of 32º.
