Bremen Farmers Produce Auction (LOVE OHIO)

Just a short drive from Lancaster,Ohio you can get all the produce you want/need for the “right” price.

An Amish man, Dan Gingerich is the founder of the auction, which takes place in a building on his property. Some of the produce offered for sale comes from his fields. He’s been dreaming for a dozen years about making the farmers’ auction a reality. READ MORE

Give a man bread and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to plow and he will feed his family for the rest of his life.

It takes both rain and sunshine to make the garden grow. If you want a place in the sun, you will have to expect some blisters.

Shall I not have intelligence with the earth? Am I not partly leaves and vegetable mould myself. -  Henry David Thoreau  or.. This cabbage, these carrots, these potatoes, these onions ... will soon become me.  Such a tasty fact!

Happiness is like jam; it’s almost impossible to spread it around without getting some on yourself.

By the time most folks get to greener pastures, they can’t climb the fence.(tell me about it)

Don’t hurry, don’t worry, do your best, leave the rest!

Auction chant (also known as "bid calling", "the auction cry", "the cattle rattle", or simply "Auctioneering") is a rhythmic repetition of numbers and "filler words" spoken by an auctioneer in the process of conducting an Auction. READ MORE

Trying to understand all that “auction chant” made me hungry so I had a cheeseburger with all the fixins. Thanks Wayne you do great work..

Sweet corn anyone???

Harvest comes not every day. Carpe diem and we will see you at the “auction”

Well, I didn’t buy any produce today but I may return on Friday and ‘test the waters”  Some say if you keep waiting for the right time, you may never begin. LOL… Have a great day

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” ― Mark Twain

“SPECTATORS ARE FREE”

“The Americans have found the healing of God in a variety of things, the most pleasant of which is probably automobile drives.” ― William Saroyan

Back Roads and Rural Routes:: When I was new to driving, one of my favorite things to do was to try and get lost. I would drive for hours and go places I had never been before. I explored back roads that I never knew existed, and these are things I still do today.(Can you say Garmin LOL)

General Sherman a native of Lancaster,Ohio watches the Hot Rods go by…

“Being road trip wise is all about being in the flow. We know we’re in the flow when we feel an undeniable rightness about our experience. Without effort, everything finds its proper place. Without planning, our day proceeds with perfect timing. Every moment of our experience happens with miraculous serendipity.” READ MORE

“I have found out that there ain't no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate them than to travel with them.” ― Mark Twain

Some enthusiasts had “ring side” seats as they ate lunch at the Four Reasons Bakery & Deli Lancaster,Ohio

Cop: "Sister, this is a 65 MPH highway -- why are you going so slow?" Sister: "Sir, I saw a lot of signs that said 33 and 37, not 65."

This is the 20th anniversary of the hot rod tour, and each year, a different route is selected. The main objective is to stay off the freeways and stick to two-lane roads because it makes the drive more exciting, especially when people know the hot rods are coming.

“For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move.” – Robert Louis Stevenson

“Sometimes, I'm driving along in my car, and a song from my high-school years comes on the radio: Springsteen's 'Thunder Road.' Just the opening few chords make me want to roll down the window and let the wind blow back my hair.” Dani Shapiro
