Oh, this is super! I had a great visit and thank you so much. What a great place to go.There is a Bavarian Village in Northeast Georgia at Helen, Georgia and a couple of hours from me. The similarity is there as are the dollar signs! LOL! I would really love to visit yours in real time. I have always wanted a cukoo (sp) clock from the Black Forest. Thanks for the treat, Jeri. Happy Memorial Day week end to you.

In response to message posted by Dubh_Sidhe:I'd love to see yours, too, Virginia. I think a cuckoo clock would drive me bananas; I already have a bird clock that gets on my nerve sometimes! But cuckoo clocks are neat and I can see why they are popular.
I know what you mean about $ - tourist theme-towns are for attracting those! But it's fun to look anyway.
Hope you're having a great week-end. Jerri

In response to message posted by Maryel:You could spend quite a lot of time here, Mary Ellen, and not see all the great little "tourist towns" waiting for your visit. Hope you do make it here to take the North Cascades Highway loop and visit Leavenworth. It's worth the stop.
Glad to have you visit

I have an aunt that lives in Sequim? I have no idea where in Washington it is located. It seems like such a beautiful state!Thanks for your "new grandma" wishes!

In response to message posted by Peggy_Kord:You're welcome, Peggy. There's nothing more satisfying than grandparenting, in my book!
Sequim is 18 miles southeast of Port Angeles on the Olympic Peninsula - the northwest part of the state. I grew up in Port Angeles.
It's a popular place for retirees as the rainfall is only 17-inches-a-year, the lowest for western Washington. It's also sunny a lot more.
There's a lot of speculation going on right now about a new "housing venture" going up in a gated community on Lost Mountain nearby - speculation is it's a community for the "famous!" Who knows.
Anyway, you grandma is lucky to live there.
