The people we stayed with were welcoming, homily and very hospitable. Gary and Beth recently moved from Trenton, NJ and Gary claims Beth has been getting lonesome in the countryside - she normally hosts over a hundred for Memorial Day weekend with a crab dinner! So, she's decide to get into the vicious sport of Blog-stalking and found a blog from our group - Meg and Randy's. It's about ten million times better than this one; so much so, I'm slightly embarrassed to give you the link . They both invited us out to their barn, where we were met with cold drinks (since they're from NJ, they were huge Yuengling fans), Burgers, a place to camp or stay indoors if we chose.
Beth was quite the hostess, showing off her beautiful home, filled almost exclusively with original art, a custom built fireplace, and had all the outgoing skills one would need to serve guests well. Gary wasn't quite the socialite, but really came alive when most of the group went to bed, telling me about his passion for reading vampire novels, and why they decided to move to a rural lifestyle.
Cheers from Marion, Kentucky (that's a joke, since it's a dry town)
