View out the window when we ate our breakfast.  Kind of hazy on the water


Yummy Thanksgiving dinner they served us!  Had salad too and our choice of pumpkin, peach or apple pie



This big Buffalo watched over us while we ate.  So glad he was hung securely!!!

Entrance to the Livery East Wing

Hallway to our room

We went on a wonderful long walk













The museum....many old cars, snow mobiles, farm equipment, household antiques
Bill serving water

Me helping keep toppings full and ice in pitcher for water.
Bill's 5 scoop banana split!  They served 117 banana splits and thought they would run out of bananas but didn't.
The Amish guy in the background turned and asked dad if they treated the workers special and laughed.  They let anyone have seconds if they want.  No one usually does, but Bill did one time.
Got up and gave thanks to the Lord for all of the many blessings He has given us.  We went to the main lodge for breakfast!  The had scrambled eggs, ham, sausage, toast and bagels.
It was very cloudy and misting.  At 12:30, we went to the dining hall and had a wonderful Thanksgiving meal.  We were so stuffed afterwards.   We took a nap when we got back to our room.  Got up and went for a nice long walk on the trails.  Bill did good walking
with his boot and broken foot.  We played a couple games of 3-13 after that.  We skipped the evening meal because we were too full.  At 8:30, we went to help with toppings and serving water and coffee with the banana splits.  There were 117 people who had banana splits.  All but six of us were Amish from Indiana.  One sweet lady talked to us for a long time and invited us to come to the restaurant she works at in  Shipshewana.  Love helping and getting to talk and joke around with everyone.  Watched a Hallmark movie before going to bed
