Maryland trip , a crafty store and sunset over Solomans Island

Nice little over night stay in Maryland.   Saw some  Amish farms.  Lots of farmland and horses.   Good to get away and not think about anything but what we are doing at the moment.    I could have stayed on the road and traveled forever,  of course I wasn't the one driving.  I am sure Steve thinks different.

I have many pictures of barns and I will add this one to the collection

The Apple Basket, I hope to visit at Christmas.  I was told there are decorated Christmas trees everywhere in the house.      They are on facebook also

I didn't get the whole picture here

It is an old purse holding the items shown

They had plenty of these,   I really like them

An old picture for sale,   I just couldnt' get over the flower spray she is holding

Buggy for sale in front yard

Steve bought a raven,   I will post his picture tomorrow,  I will have to set him on my mantle with some other decorations. 
 Lastly a beautiful ending of the sunset over Solomans Island in Maryland

Island picture

I snapped this picture along the boardwalk on Solomon's Island on Saturday evening. 
I think I will frame it.  Peaceful      I just noticed in the cloud formation what looks to be an arm and hand extending from the heavens-- wow

Day trip to Solomons Island

 We took a day trip to visit Steve's son and daughter in law in Md.   Had dinner and toured Solomons Island a bit.  Finished dinner off by stuffing ourselves with  key lime pie while watching the sunset over the Island.
Where the Patuxent river meets the Chesapeake bay at the southern tip of Calvert county in southern Maryland is the location of this picturesque island.   One of the last remaining screw pile lighthouses is located here.  Open all year,  I want to see it at Christmas as it will be celebrating it's 26th annual Christmas walk.

First we had dinner at Ruddy Duck Brewery and Grill.
