Watermelon on the Side Road It’s been years since I grew my own watermelon.  Each year I do consider starting some seeds to grow my own but they are just so easy to purchase locally during a grocery store trip.   My husband and I happen to be coming home from Indiana and saw this roadside stand.  It was purchase using the honor system so we had to guess what we would pay this home gardener.  What would you pay for a roadside watermelon?    This is from my Flickr Image Collection It started to down pour just as we approached the stand.  My husband was kind enough to jump out and pick a watermelon.  He did a great job!

A Rainy Autumn Drive to Indiana and Ohio

In this post I ant to share a short video and some of my favorite photo captures from this road trip.  Join me on an Autumn Drive to Indiana and back.  You will find a restaurant review along with images from this short but fun trip. Autumn Drive to Indiana and Back Video It has been a super busy end of summer into Autumn so we have been putting off this trip.  Hubby had found a part for our RV on an ebay auction we had to pick up.  Originally, the trip was going to be with the RV but I didn’t want to leave the kittens.  In the video below I share some of the buildings, homes and all the trees on our short Autumn drive to Indiana. It happen to be raining but the storm skies really set off the gold and orange colors in the landscape.  Pa’s Chicken Coupe for Lunch Pa’s Chicken Coupe Diner Clean Location Pa’s Photos hung by his Sister Chicken Dinner at Pa’s Chicken Coupe Huge Walleye Dinner Pa’s Chicken Coupe for Lunch During this road trip we stopped for a bite to eat in Westville, Indiana at Pa’s Chicken Coupe.  At first I was not sure about dining in because the location is out in the middle or ‘no where’. When we pulled over for me to do a Google map search for restaurants in the area we happen to be a stones throw away.  The driveway was clean and the signage upon entering was current with the daily specials.   I totally recommend the fried chicken and the walleye dinner.   The owner (Pa) and his sister were cooking and serving the food up.  The fried chicken was just like my Grandma use to make so I had to take some home for later in the week.  Which, by the way, it heated back up nicely in my air fryer.  Enter the address below into your mobile map app to find Pa’s Chicken Coupe for their latest specials. 107 Greenway St # A, Westville, IN 46391 Google Map Review: https://goo.gl/maps/1LVC8QS2c9eTnLvb7 Photo Collection From Autumn Drive To Indiana Coulture’s Produce Pumpkin Gold on the Highway Water Tower in Edgerton, Indidian Mural in La Porte, Indiana Mural in Butler Indiana Thank you for checking out my website today!
