Show and Tail Tuesday

It's time for Show and Tail Tuesday over at Angela's place West Virgina Treasures come by and check her out.
Well it seems I've still not able to get out and around so I have gone back to about 8 mos ago when DH and I took a trip to Kentucky for a week. We went to several great places that we really enjoyed and one was the Shaker Village in Pleasantville.

We really enjoyed walking around and checking out everything, then we spied this guy and decided to follow him...

We followed him and we saw this building, isn't the grounds so neat and clean, wish our garden looked like this....

Awww look what we found inside that big old barn...


aren't they beautiful, they were waiting for dinner and to be hooked up to take the visiting folks on a wagon ride...
As we wondered through the town we later saw the horses and wagon on it's daily rounds...we were coming out of the broom building when we saw this

We watched him slowly go down the street and wondered where he would wind up, we didn't see them again, because it was time to leave and so we said farewell to the beautiful little town and headed back to Harrodsburg for the night.

    That looks like it was a fun trip! I wish our garden looked like that too! Maybe I would get to eat something out of our garden if it did! lol Too bad you didn't get to go for a ride in that buggy. When I was a kid there was a man who lived on my uncles farm who had a horse and buggy. He used to ride us around when we would go for visits. I loved going there! Thanks for sharing this so I could remember some good times from my childhood!

    Tuesdays' Show & Tail!

    Enjoyed the look. I visited Pleasentville many years ago, I think it looks the same. As I recall it was a bright sunny day as well. I'm visiting you by way of Angela's Show and Tail.

    I love touring things like this and just soaking up what I am seeing. When I come to your blog I feel like I can often do this through your pictures!
    I am laughing that you followed that guy - Did he know? Ha Ha
