    On our way home from Maryland on our yearly road trip, this was a last second decision to stop for lunch and bathroom break, but we were so glad we did! We had a picnic lunch under giant oak trees in a picturesque field. An employee stopped by to welcome us and chat and invite us in to the barn. Where we learned all about John Dickinson and his life.

    I was there with the Thistledown Fiber Guild. We spin, knit, and do other fiber arts, demonstrating for the visitors every 2nd Saturday, 1-3 pm. Only a small group today but we enjoyed ourselves!
