Vacation!

How awesome is it, to be able to spend a week in Oil City? So awesome! It was Second Saturday, so there were open studios in the Transit Building, shout out to Shon Gaworski, May Artist of the Month! I love seeing Shon - an amazing soul.

We finished painting the house. I did the ladder stuff. Who says you can't teach an old dog, new tricks? We knocked out the painting in the mornings and ran around in the afternoons.





We went to one of our favorite places, Two Mile Run Park ( aka "2 Mile Island" in Karen-speak.)  Last time we were here, it was a very warm March day and we could only imagine how the trees would look. Talk about a peaceful place.


An Ent! Carved at the trail entrance. Awesome!








Look for my later post on why you should not buy Fishing Stuff made in China.

Venango County = Fishing! and we celebrated our 25th Anniversary in Oil City. Yay, go us!  we had a fantastic lunch at Luna Restaurant in Franklin and spent some time at Oil City Antique Warehouse and walking around the Northside after dinner. Fabulous Victorian houses that I am glad I do not have to paint.

How I fish.








Is this a great place or what? We're able to walk everywhere in town, including Thorne's Market, (we kept forgetting things like bread,) the Library, Spill the Beans (Chai Latte!) and of course all the Transit activities. We missed getting to The Mosaic Cafe this trip, but now that most of the house stuff is done (thank you Freidhabers for fixing stove) we're definately on track for more social time.
