4-Day Weekend

Jeremy has a brief summer break before the fall semester starts, so I decided to take a couple days off from work and enjoy some time with my hubby. It started last Friday when I found out about the Weston 10 Mile Trail Antique and Garden show. I didn't know any more about it than the information provided on the website, but I thought it sounded like a fun spontaneous adventure. There were four locations that had vendors set up selling random treasures but we only made it to three. The first stop was the Weston Red Barn Farm.

There were many people with small portions of the treasures they had collected. We talked to one guy who said he used 40 semi trailors to transport all of his belongings when he moved. He claimed to have a full pipe organ and one of the greatest keyboard collections in the nation. I loved hearing the stories.

Stop number two was at the Riverwood Winery. The winery was located in a small country school northwest of Weston and unfortunately I didn't get a picture there.

Last, but definitely not least we made a stop at Beverlin's Statuary at the old grain elevators in Weston which were built in the early 1900s. We didn't find anything to take home with us, but we thought it was a fun place.

Sunday afternoon we took off for Manhattan to spend a couple days with family and friends. We got to have dinner with Jeremy's brother Alex, take a driving tour of the ever changing K-State campus, spend some time with Carmen, Tony, and Hannah and have dinner with the Nutter's. It was a great couple days of catching up with people we don't get to see often enough.

Well, time for some pilates with my hubby.

Note two blog posts in one day.... don't get used to it :).
