Another visitor ... another chance for Abigail to rename somebody!!! Jenny's really good friend Rachel left her husband and children behind to come and spend 12 days with us here in Coshocton ... and is now more affectionally known as Ratch-it!!
Jenny and friends had agreed to prepare some scrapbook pages for a friends wedding, so Rachel got to meet them as well as getting stuck in with the crafty stuff ... Laurie prepared cookies and virgin daiquiri's to add a touch of class to the occasion!
Of course there was the usual trip to the hangar to see the planes ... given that its the reason we're living here ... it would be rude not show all our guests what goes on up there!!
We also had fun visiting Amish country a couple of times, Roscoe Village, Lake Park, Zanesville ... (and going to the Balloon festival and Corvette Car Rally mentioned in our previous entry) ... as well as just hanging out and catching up on anything and everything!!
One highlight for Jenny and Rachel wasn't an activity we usually undertake with visitors!! They both went to the Vacshak for 2 beginners knitting classes with Bobbie Smith ... their master knitter!! It was two 3 hour sessions ... and both the girls were a little hooked by the end of it, having practiced different styles of knitting they both started 'real' projects in the week following ... watch out for woolly hats!!
A fun time was had by all during Rachel's stay ... she was missed loads by her family and arrived safely home having had a chance to relax here with us ... her favourite spot was out on our front porch!!
