We had a wet and soggy day today, but that was all right with me! We went to Amana and took our pastor and his wife with us. We only got sprinkled on, so it wasn't bad at all. We actually all of us had umbrellas, but didn't have to use them. David & Liz had never been there and just loved it. As usual we ate at the Ox Yoke Inn...which was wonderful! They've changed their menu and prices, and their way of doing things. Now you can either order a meal plated or order it family style. I know they used to do that on some items, but now it's on most every item except the sandwiches and salads. They also now have shrimp, catfish, and walleye, which I don't remember them ever having before. I had my usual, Kasselar Rippchen, but they've changed it drastically. It's even better now because instead of two very thin pork chops, you get a small Iowa chop covered in a cinnamon sauce with apple slices in it. Very, very good! We also took in the Woolen Mill, the Furniture Factory, the Smoke House, the broom and basket store, the General Store, the Bakery, the Kitchen Sink (which is closing because the owner is retiring), and several others. Unfortunately we didn't go to either the fabric store or Fern Hill...:(!
More later...
