Fall Open House






Barb has set the date for the Fall Open House, September 19 & 20. If you have never been to one of the fall flings, you have got to mark this one on the calender. Barb always manages to amaze all of us with the special effects she works up just to bring in the seasons. The beautiful setting at Sisters' is a treat for the senses. Hilly Iowa farm land with newly harvested fields, scent the crisp autumn air. Beautiful scarlet sunsets, beloved by Mark Twain, frame Sister's pond, creates a flaming, reflected pool. Just last week I watched a pair of Amish farmers cutting hay with horse-drawn mowers, great grey beasts appeared to move in slow motion as they plodded the hills effortlessly.

So these are some pictures of last years event...I just want to get you in the mood for all that Barb does to give her customers that special treatment...an appreciation of the seasons and the wonderful friends that enter here.
