"Basket World"

We concluded our weekend with a stop at what Travis calls "Basket World". It was really the Longaberg Homestead in the Dresden Ohio area.





We started by touring some shops and the Crawford Barn. The "barn" has discounted merchandise from the homestead and a little cafeteria restaurant. We had lunch there.




We then took a shuttle to the actual factory. The factory was closed and we were short on time, but we were able to go to the factory store..

We found a "seconds" section of the factory where we found lots of baskets at a reduced price. I kept filling the cart with "possibilities". Travis was a good sport!


On the way to the hotel for Saturday night we drove past the corporate office. It is shaped in the form of a HUGE basket. It was really cool watching it come over the horizon.
