"The elevators are out; we'll have to use the steps." Doesn't sound like a big deal, does it? But, it is a big deal if you have a number of aging veterans in wheelchairs at the top of the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, D.C., when you hear the news. Wendi and I were blessed to travel with a group of veterans from Wayne and Holmes counties in Ohio to the nation's capital as part of the Honor Bus Trip, designed to take veterans to see the war memorials.

Honor is Evident at Pallotta Ford Lincoln in Wooster
Have you ever had such a great customer service experience that you just need to share? I haven't had many, but today (August 20, 2016) I had an awesome experience at Pallotta Ford Lincoln in Wooster, Ohio. The saga that led to my being at Pallotta's started a few weeks ago when my husband, Bobby and I met our niece, Ashley and her boys at the Mansfield Art Center. When Bobby saw and heard Ashley's car, he got real nervous. It seemed to be his focus. He would tell me often, "Ashley needs … [Read more...]
Lehman’s: Everything Including the Kitchen Sink

Whether it was jams and jellies, pictures and plaques or cheese and crackers, there was something unique to … [Read more...]
Hartzler’s Family Dairy: Wholesome, Good Ice Cream
I don't know how many times I have driven north on State Route 3 out of Wooster, but rarely is there a time (during business hours) that Hartzler's Ice Cream Shoppe has an empty parking lot. I am usually on my way somewhere, so I haven't been able to stop by to try them at the shop. (I do visit them during the Wayne County Fair.) That is until Friday, June 24, 2016, which was due to the fact that my brother-in-law and sister-in-law came for a visit. My husband Bobby's brother, Carmine, … [Read more...]
P. Graham Dunn in Dalton: A Place Where Beauty Abounds
I like to visit places that are beautifully decorated. I think I appreciate them because I lack the natural talent for creating beauty. I definitely think it takes an artistic eye to make a room pleasing to the senses. Therefore, visiting P. Graham Dunn during the recent Cupcake Tour, was a real pleasure for me. It all begins when you drive into the complex. I say complex because it is so much more than just a store. The driveway is lined with light posts and banners that are very … [Read more...]
