Sauders Village Fiber Festival

September 25-27,2015 Sauder Village Museum

Sherry likes to go to fiber festivals and when she was working this festival was always during the busy season that she worked 6 days a week. We just had never taken her day off and attended this event. So we hooked up the car to the RV and headed to Archbold, Ohio for a few days.We did not take the bicycles and after we got there we wished we had. We had a lovely spot with a nice view of the lake. We were in the new section that had just opened earlier in the year.

We lucked out for the weekend that Smithsonian Museum was offering a free day ticket and that Sauder Village was on the list so we went on-line to the Smithsonian and printed off our free tickets. This a wonderful thing for visiting museums and you can check their web site for the list and dates.

The fiber festival was small but had lots of beautiful yarns and other fiber related things to purchase. The museum had some antique spinning wheels, flax breakers and warping mills displayed in the

We drove into Archbold and ate at Mom's Diner. Decorated with a theme of old signs and neon lights like a diner from the 1950's we really enjoyed our meals and decor. If you like the old diner look you will love this diner.
