Sugarcreek Visit

Back in June, my family and I took a little trip through Sugarcreek, Ohio.

We were headed to our favorite store to shop when it is rainy at the lake! It has everything and we could easily spend the entire day there~

On this trip we did a few stops along the way...

First we stopped in Sugarcreek town square which is home to the world's largest Cuckoo Clock! It was great...when we arrived it was 10 minutes until the top of hour so we had a very short wait and the show began. I asked my nieces to do this (point and pose) and was extremely shocked that they obliged me! HA!


The clock "performs" every hour and every half hour.

Here it is...ENJOY! Sorry it flips partway through, you have to lean to finish watching...HA!

From there we passed the Worlds Largest Adirondack chair so we decided to make that a photo opp too!!! See those looming storm clouds above?!?!

The family...I am taking the picture...I just noticed that my Dad has his tongue sticking out! WHAT?!?!

All in all it was a great day! I love those days where you have no plans and just find fun stuff to explore and visit!

Anyone else enjoy driving with no plans? Looking for the next adventure? How do you spend rainy days? What was your favorite spontaneous stop?

I hope you all have an amazing week! Hugs!

  1. Ha! I love all those cheesy roadside tourist things and the cuckoo clock is awesome. Thanks for sharing it. I'm going to have to get the hubby in the car one of these days and head that way. Oh, I do like heading out with no plans. My favorite was for my 50th birthday. We had a three day weekend and no plan. We ended up in Gettysburg and had a wonderful time. On my bucket list is a driving trip the whole way across the country on Rt. 30 with a side trip on Rt. 66. No plans...just stop at what catches our eye.

  2. Yes, indeed! I love road trips and kitschy things to see along the way!! I'm from Ohio, by the way! I grew up 30 miles east of Columbus and spent four years in Sandusky, up on the lake.

  4. Fun fun! I wish I would have had more time the 2x that I drove across the country. My mom is a lot of fun to do road trips with because we like the same types of things and neither one of us stresses if we make a wrong turn.

  5. My husband loves doing that kind of road-tripping. I'm a planner, but I'm getting to enjoy the randomness by going along with him.

    1. Hi! The important thing is that you enjoy his randomness...many people who are planners do not enjoy being around spontaneity! HA! That is probably what makes your relationship work! Thanks for stopping by!
