Perhaps I can finally get around to covering part of my adventures on the Spring Shop Crawl last Saturday. I rather exhausted myself walking all around the village of Herkimer. Shouldn’t I be building up my endurance with all the walks and runs I have been taking lately? Perhaps I need healthier eating habits. In any case, I will just mention a few of the fun places I stopped.
I think of it as my chair.
The first place I went was To Niche Their Own, to pick up my map and list of places to go as well as the little card I had to get punches on. Then I went back home, because I realized I had forgotten my phone to take pictures with. It’s not easy being me, but I get a lot of exercise. This put me right near Herkimer County Historical Society, which regular readers know is one of my favorite places. I put in for a drawing to win a book (I won!), purchased some post cards, and took a picture of Roxalana Druse’s rocking chair. Long-time readers may recall I had to honor to portray Mrs. Druse in Roxy written by Jack Sherman and presented by Ilion Little Theatre in cooperation with the Historical Society in 2015.
Another favorite spot!
Naturally I stopped by Renewed & Rescued on Main Street.
A refreshing pause.
When I stopped home, I also picked up my address book and some post card stamps. When I felt the need for a rest, I stopped by Java Shop, ordered a Dalgano, and wrote out a few of the post cards I had gotten at the Historical Society for my Saturday post card peeps. It was the pause that refreshed.
As regular readers may recall, I spent last night trying to mystify supporters of the Herkimer County Historical Society with A Revolutionary Murder at Herkimer Elks Lodge. I am still tired after the ordeal, although I believe it was a successful event. However, I see I am over 300 words, so I say score! I hope you are all having a delightful Sunday.
