Dear Sis,

My friend Hannah told me about this event some months ago. Today we made the trek to Piqua, Ohio to visit Johnston Farm & Indian Agency.  After just over two hours in the car, we were thrilled to get out and stretch our legs. We first visited the colonial era:

The kids spent a half hour listening to stories and songs played by The Colonial Balladeer.

In the Regency era, I found some fabulous Italian Millifiori aka. mini mosaic jewelry suitable for 1860s impressions.

I picked up this brooch…

… and a pair of earrings for only $40!

Finally, we found Hannah when we reached the Victorian era.

It was nice to finally meet Hannah’s husband, Robert. Needless to say, he never attended the ladies sewing days that I host. 

Hannah accompanied us on a tour of the farm house and spring house and kindly took this photo of us.

It was dinner time, so we headed home at that point.  We did meet the event coordinators and they offered us tenting accommodations for next year’s event. That would be wonderful!!!

Love,

b
