A Romantic Picnic for Two

July 26th 2010 19:49
This summer why not plan a romantic picnic for just the two of you. A warm summer evening, away from the cares of the world, the stress of your days where just the two of you can spend some time appreciating each other.

There are just a few simple things to prepare and then you two can be off for some leisurely romantic time together. First, know where you are going. Pick your spot. Make it someplace where there are not a kids running around all over making noise and creating commotion. How about down on the beach, off away from the swimmers? Or maybe that peaceful way off corner of your local park? Or even a quiet ride down some lonely country road where no one ever goes

Why You Should Visit Holmes County, Ohio

July 11th 2010 15:30
Homes County Ohio is in the section of the state. It is generally an area of beautiful farms on rolling hills. It is home to such lovely small towns with names that include Charm, Sugar Creek, Apple Creek and Mt. Hope. The largest town is name Millersburg and one of the most visited towns is Berlin.

For those of you that have never heard of the area it is also the heart of the Amish country in Ohio and that is what makes Holmes County a very special place to visit. It is the largest settlement of Amish people in the world and it is a place to take a step back, unwind and view a different way of life.
Follow the winding country roads and you will see many an Amish buggy as they go about their daily life. You will pass their pristine white homes and farms. You can always tell which homes are owned by the Amish as there are no electrical wires leading to the home and the homes are normally painted white and are the exteriors are very clean, basic and uncluttered. You will often see Purple Martin birdhouses erected in the yards and see the buggy parked in the driveway. There are clotheslines on which they have hung their freshly washed clothing. Amish women always wear plain long dresses and the men are often in jeans and their familiar black coats. Both men and women wear hats whenever they are out in public. Women wear no makeup and jewelry and men have full beards. The Amish country side is a peaceful and serene place that is lovely no matter what season of the year you visit
