A Wonderful Trip

I haven't been on-line alot this past two weeks (see my post here), but I do like to keep up with Show and Tell! So let me show you my recent trip to St. Jacobs Village. This is Mennonite country and the downtown and area are filled with fantastic shops and markets.
We stayed in a nearby village of Mary Hill at this Inn:
We were there for a bible study conference on Christian friendship, this is a picture of my hubby and I during game night - we're both so camera shy:
The trip to St. Jacobs would not be complete without visiting the well known farmer's market. It is a huge place, with seperate building for the food and craft market, a flea market, a furniture market and then an auction building, as well. These are pictures of the famous cinnamon bun baker - she's been there for years and has a great product:
Finally, how often do you see a full rainbow like this? We stopped on the side of the road to get the shot - a wonderful trip from beginning to end.

You ALWAYS have the neatest photo's ! I loved seeing a Mennonite town through your eyes. I have never seen one but being in Canada I hear about them a lot. When I go to the hs conference in the Lower Mainland of Vancover. BC. There is a Mennonite family that sells Rod and Staff curriculm.

Thank you so much for sharing your trip !

How beautiful! Funny, I never think of Mennonite country being anywhere but Pennsylvania. That is so fun to see. Thanks for sharing! Even the camera shy picture!
Because of Jesus, Bobbie
