Ugh, as usual lost a very long post.

Anyway, suffce to say that last week was our first annual Rue House BBQ.  We have done nothing since then in the house due to severe exhaustion. I  am posting some pictures taken by others of our hometown of Allentown NJ and then a few of the greenhouse and such.





The old mill. Due to our wonderful NJ government the mill pond bridge was supposed to be repaired about two years ago, and until that time the mill is not occupied. usually it has a nice German restuarant and tons of little crafty stores in it.   It was built in the mid 1800's to replace a mill  built by Nathan Allen in the early 1700's.




A view looking north down main street. The pharmacy on the corner has been a store for a century an a half at least.  The old church on main street is now a library.



A sign declaring that Allentown was established in 1706.  Late, by Monmouth County standards .



Our dining room, current.





Our greenhouse room.  We started buying some nice houseplants for it.  Maybe pick up yet some more today?
