\"Central<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, I had to visit the Central Market of Lancaster! It is the oldest farmers’ market in the country and is held in a 120 year old brick building.<\/p>\n

\"Central<\/a><\/p>\n

There were loads of products available and I must admit that I did buy a few things.<\/p>\n

\"Central<\/a><\/p>\n

I also bought a bag to replace the one I left behind at Barb’s house.<\/p>\n

\"Central<\/a><\/p>\n

I wanted to look up the Lancaster Creative Reuse Center, which I had been following since it opened, and I found it!<\/p>\n

\"Lancaster<\/a><\/p>\n

Back when I was first considering retirement, I though I might try to get something like this going in Kalamazoo.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Lancaster<\/a><\/p>\n

I didn’t, although, I probably had this much crammed in my house and in my closet at school. I could have opened up something without taking a single donation.<\/p>\n

\"Lancaster<\/a><\/p>\n

Lancaster Creative Reuse turned out really well, though. \u00a0I was so happy that the founder, Andrea, was in the shop the day I visited. She gave me a lot of advice about starting a creative reuse center.\u00a0\"Lancaster<\/a><\/p>\n

We made plans to meet another day for lunch.<\/p>\n

I also made a trip to see Herr’s Snack and take a tour of the factory. \u00a0They do seem to like their chips and pretzels in this section of the state. There are any number of snack factories to tour.<\/p>\n

\"Herr's<\/a><\/p>\n

Most of the lines were down for maintenance, but it was still an interesting tour. And, they gave us samples to take with us.<\/p>\n

\"Herr's<\/a><\/p>\n

And a little book of sayings based on the book of Proverbs.<\/p>\n

Heading back to Lancaster, I got a ping from the HISTORY Here app that I was near Robert Fulton’s birthplace. Detour!<\/p>\n

\"Robert<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Robert<\/a><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, I missed the tours.<\/p>\n

\"Robert<\/a><\/p>\n

Wrong day. Wrong month.<\/p>\n

What would a trip to Lancaster be without eating in the Amish area?<\/p>\n

\"Kling<\/a><\/p>\n

I decided to head to Kling House. I liked these little crackers and pepper spread they brought with the menu. I had an interesting view out the window while waiting for my lunch.<\/p>\n

\"Tall<\/a><\/p>\n

When I first saw it, I would have sworn it was the tallest horse I’d ever seen.<\/p>\n

\"Intercourse<\/a><\/p>\n

All right, there you have it. My work here is done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
