It rained a good part of last night but had almost quit when
we got up this morning.
We decided today would be the best day for us to go see
Har-Ber Village in Grove. On the way I filled the truck for 2.339 per gallon
for diesel. I didn’t think that was too bad.
Har-Ber Village was built by Harvey and Bernice Jones, the
founders of Jones Truck Lines, is a 19th century village with over a
hundred different displays. It seems that if it was collectable, it is there.
There are collections of glass, dolls, farm machinery, and anything else you
can imagine.
We got a lot of pictures of log cabins. There is a doctor’s
office, a dentist, a drug store, an old post office, and even a bank. I can’t possibly
put all the pictures on one post, so I will have to divide them up into some
other posts.

Penny was good about walking everywhere. We had found out from their website that they were pet friendly. |

Lots of log Cabins. |
We totally enjoyed our over three hours there and could have stayed longer, but we got tired. The walk was over a mile up and down hills.
Thanks for visiting.
I'm putting this on my must-see list. It looks fascinating!!
