Tour de Burg: Josh and Lindsay Visit

It was a picturesque weekend...my college roommate and her husband came to Harrisonburg in March. I felt like the whole time they were here, we kept on commenting "this is the perfect weekend!". The weather was beautiful and the company was even better.

We committed to giving them a full "Tour de Burg" of Harrisonburg's finest. 1st stop? Of course Union Station for our favorite specials! Every night they have amazing food for $5 or less before 7:00. We enjoyed fish tacos, gravy and fries, hamburgers, etc. Then we headed to the new Capital Ale House and had a few craft beers.

The next morning our tour began at the local farmer's market. Josh found a pumpkin whoopee pie that was to die for. Can you see the excitement in his face?

Then it was off to the Dayton Farmer's Market. We picked up everything we needed for our picnic. 4 kinds of cheeses, crackers, spreads, more whoopee pies, etc. Josh piled it up...

Then it was off to Cross Keys Vineyard, only 10 minutes away from home. This is one of my favorite places in Harrisonburg. You get a great tasting for $5, grab a bottle of wine, your BYOP (bring your own picnic), and then sit and enjoy the beautiful view.

Did I mention it was St. Patty's day? Cute green couple!

my cheese board cutter: best purchase ever.

The view driving home from the vineyard. Love living so close to beautiful scenes like this.

After a little cat nap, we got busy on our St. Pattys day feast! I was at Costco and found these adorable clover raviolis filled with Irish Cheese. I thought it was the perfect occasion to get cheesy with our guests!


After dinner, we took them to one more Harrisonburg staple: Dave's rooftop! It was a beautiful night. The next morning we headed to church and say our goodbyes.

The only thing that would have made their visit more complete...successfully taping ourselves dancing behind people for the Ellen Show! We had a few tries, the best being behind a Mennonite at the Dayton Farmer's Market, but not good enough to make the cut. Maybe next time!

Anyway, we had a blast and I think Luke and I mentioned to them several times that they needed to move here. I may or may not have sent Josh some links to Harrisonburg job openings....

Can't wait to see you guys again!
