Oh my, you should go there. They have everything, not just farm stuff. There's not one near me or I'd be there once a week to see what's new. They have delicious Amish jams and jellies, all kinds of food, things for the house, decorations for the yard, You can't imagine. Go when you have plenty of time so you can see everything. It's a BIG place. They usually have free coffee and free popcorn. I have to make sure I stay away from the cakes and candy, especially the salt water taffy.
When I lived in Tn, we had 77 horses, 27 ducks, 40 chickens, a pit pig, pet goat and about 30 barn cats (BIG horse barn) Pig and goat never lived inside a fence. They ran free in the yard with our 2 great Danes and German Shepherd. We called it the funny farm.
When Joe passed away, I could not take care of all that so I moved to town in Alabama to be near my son and DIL. I hate living in town but I was 92 when he passed away and I knew I'd better get situated before I got OLD. LOL!
I am finally getting used to being 2 blocks from my pharmacy, Little Caesar's Pizza, the Dollar tree and Auto Zone, 2 miles from Walmart other stores, the river and the huge waterfall in town, so I'm OK.
Seriously...check out Rural King. You'll be glad you did!

Okay, you convinced me, I'll be going up there this weekend and check out Rural King. If we had lived near you and Carol had met you I probably would've hardly ever seen her because she would have been at your place volunteering to help you with all those horses. She loved horses so much. Her quarter horse's name was "Major". She used to tell me about him sneaking up behind her and stealing her Pepsi-cola and drinking the rest of it down. I believe they only have 2 cats in the barn now, and they got rid of their turkeys last year and they still have ducks and the Angus, and finally a baby girl coming up on two years. She said that is enough work for her now since Dan does an awful lot of cement work in Cincinnati just about everyday, and it is about 65 or 70 miles south of where they live. Thanks for the info about Rural King. I'll let you know what I find.
