We spent the last two days in Goshen with Sarah, Curtis, and Elam feasting on their company and amazing meals, and comfortably resting our tired and sore bodies.
Sunday, we took a long walk with Sarah into town. Curtis & Elam escorted us partway to the Pumpkinvine Trail and then turned back as we continued into downtown. We ended up at the GBC – Goshen Brewing Company, and each had a beer to toast our visit.
Sunday evening, Sarah & Curtis cooked up a fabulous salmon & roasted corn dinner and we were joined by Curtis’ cousin Merlin and his stories of living in Brazil and other world travels.
Monday, Dana went for a run and I just relaxed and caught up on the blog and made a trip to the grocery store for provisions for the next couple of days. When Sarah got home from work, she and Dana went to pick up a sushi tray and salad fixings for the evening meal. Sarah is a chef and whipped up two amazing salads: spinach & marinated mushrooms, and romaine and goat cheese “boats”.
Tomorrow we’ll say our goodbyes to Goshen and Sarah, Curtis, & Elam and start heading east again towards home.
Hi, Paul! I finally had the chance to catch up on your blog posts. OMG, what a great trip you and Dana are having! I am so glad you liked Iowa City. We lived there for five years (1977-1982) and loved it. But then California beckoned. We’re still in Boston; home on Sunday. Looking forward to seeing both of you soon. Be safe! Hugh
