This weekend is the annual fall festival located at the park on Atwood Lake in Dellroy, Oh. The colors are beginning to look very bright and by the weekend I’m sure they will be even more vibrant. There will be home made food vendors, artisans and crafters selling their unique items. Music and entertainment along with civil war re-enactments will take place daily. On Sunday, the car show is always fantastic and will take you down memory lane. The park also has several walking trails.
So why not spend your getaway weekend at our Ohio Bed & Breakfast and when you return from the festival, Linda’s chocolate chip cookies will be waiting for you.
I’ll look forward to seeing you soon,

I, myself, just discovered this little gem of something unique to do on the way to your overnight stay at Whispering Pines Bed & Breakfast. It’s the 8th annual Buy-Way yard sale along the Lincoln Highway in Ohio. This fun time begins August 9th – 11th. The event jumps across the border to West Virginia, with parts of Indiana, Illinois and Iowa’s Lincoln Highway communities as well.
Shoppers will find just about anything rummaging through over a thousand sales in Ohio alone. This is presented by the Lincoln Highway Historic Byway,
A free Travelers Guide, featuring a map of the byway’s sometimes two parallel paths across Ohio, will be available to travelers at businesses along the corridor. This website lists the locations where the guides will be available as well as many of the yard sale sites and other attractions.
An “online” scavenger hunt will again be part of the three-day event.
This three-day BUY-WAY Yard Sale has not only introduced people from all over the country to the history of America’s first coast-to-coast paved road, but it also provides an economic boost to the communities that participate, and it serves the thrifty side of all of us who find that bargain.
I’ll look forward to seeing you soon,
