Saturday, June 10th
Today, we were scheduled to go to an Amish house for lunch.Before we headed over there, we ran to Aldi for some groceries. It was our first time in one, and we felt out of place, because very few items are recognizable brands. There were also a number of Amish families shopping there as well, and they seemed to know exactly what they were getting! The loaded their baskets pretty full, pretty quickly, while we hemmed and hawed over what to get.
Just before 11:45, we joined our friends, Dan and Ann, to go to The Carriage House. The drive was pleasant, and we enjoyed the conversation, catching up with them and their lives in Colorado. We had planned to visit them last year at Christmas, but weather thwarted our plans.
The dinner is served "family style" with bread, salad, potatoes, tuna casserole, chicken, meatloaf, green beans, and noodles, all sent down each long table. You take your portion and pass it down. Many of the items were sent multiple times, so it was easy to get a second helping. We also chose a dessert from a variety of pies, and also homemade ice cream and caramel sauce.
We were quite stuffed by meal's end!
We returned to the Rally, and ended up taking a nap for a bit during the afternoon. After a light dinner, we went out and visited some. I also worked on Rally Posters for the president of the Owners Club.
