Exciting Adventures




The Selden family is an adventure waiting to happen, as we realized yet again earlier this week. The cousins, Elizabeth and Garrett, were visiting from Indiana, so to show them a good time, we all headed out to . . . Archbold, Ohio, of course!

"Why Archbold?" you ask. Archbold was the scene of many family outings of the past as it was only about 5 miles west of Wauseon, the town where I grew up. So we went on a pilgrimage. For those of you who are unaware of the amazing tourist opportunities in Ohio, Archbold, Ohio, is the home of the famous Sauder Village, Sauder Heritage Inn, Sauder Barn Restaurant, and the Sauder ready-to-assemble furniture factory and corporate headquarters that at one time employed my mom.

Anyway, the quaint Sauder Village is where we would often take the children for fun when my parents still lived in Ohio and we visited them there. Unfortunately, upon our arrival Monday, we learned that the village is closed on Mondays. Not to worry, though, we had reservations at the lovely Sauder Heritage Inn, so the cousins spent a lot of time in the pool. A good time was had by all.

All I know about Archbold is they had a pretty good basketball team.
