Tree Lighting and Holiday Gift Market

I am looking forward to this weekend in Pendleton on the square with the Tree Lighting Ceremony on Friday and then the Holidays In The Village Christmas Market on Saturday. I plan to be at both events and plan to visit the shops on the square as well as have lunch on the square. Will I see you there? I sure hope so!

Pendleton is a great place to be

Thank you to Eddie Nail and the other organizers of the Childrens Games a couple of weeks ago. Those children sure did have a fun Saturday! Thank you to Bonnie Wortham for the wonderful European Arts and Music Fair. It was great. It is so wonderful to see the town filled with people. I hope they took the time to visit our wonderful shops and restaurants and I know many did.

Ok. I have a big surprise coming soon. The Ohme Bug will be hidden in one of the businesses listed on the Pendleton Businesses lens and whoever finds my Ohme Bug will win a prize. I will be giving you more details soon but it will be fun!

Fall Harvest Festival

The Fall Harvest Festival held on October 11 and sponsored by the Pendleton Area Business Association was a huge success. Jean Vegod was the chairperson and she did an excellent job. The weather cooperated and the overall tone of the event was joyous.

Village Station Antiques

I stopped by Village Station Antiques to get their donation for the Poppers for Evening Under The Stars at Woodburn. Gail is always so good to support local events and she is very much appreciated. Of course, I had to look around while I was in there and found some goodies that I wanted to tell you about. Village Station Antiques has a wonderful assortment of dish towels. They are all throughout the store so you have to browse around. I got two for my daughter in law that are blue checked with a stencil of shrimp on them. They live on the coast and have a blue kitchen so I felt this was perfect. I asked Gail about small individual molds for Tomato Aspic. I remembered that my mom used to have the individual molds but I haven't seen them in awhile. Of course, she had them. Please stop by and visit this beautiful shop on the square and visit their website. Both are a treat!

Be A Good Citizen

I have always felt that it is my responsible as a citizen of Pendleton to support the local businesses and hope you feel the same way. Pendleton Businesses draw some tourist traffic but that isn't enough to keep a business going. They need the local traffic and that means you and me. Let's rally for our businesses and keep Pendleton Alive - Think Pendleton!

Pendleton Old Photos

My lens containing old photographs of Pendleton SC is now ranked 107 overall thanks to an Angel Blessing by Thomas C. I am so excited to be this close to the top 100. Thank you to everyone who has viewed this lens. It continues to be more and more fun as I get contacted by old friends and people continue to share old photos for this site. Such fun!
