Date Night: Harvest at Bent’s Opera House in Medina

Ahhhhhh, ‘date night’. A term that has not been uttered around our house much over the past 7 months (or actually, the past 2 years). Between Covid and a baby, our date nights were held most often in front of our television, grazing on some pregnancy superfood. Not quite date worthy. The

Happy 4 Years, Shirt Factory

This writing challenge might be the death of me. But as Scarlett O’Hara said, “as God as my witness”….you know the rest. It’s 6:14 pm as I start this (edit: it’s 9pm as I am just about to publish) and I have been laboring all day over the subject of this post.

The Start of Christmas in Medina

It’s time to sing Christmas carols, decorate, watch Hallmark movies, and officially transition to the holiday season. For those familiar with the two of us, you probably know we’ve been doing this for over a month. However, if you’re in Medina, you know very well that today is the Olde Tyme Christmas
