Foulk Family Reunion and Bob Evans

Published by at 9:16 am under Family,Trips

Corrine and I went to Ripley, West Virginia to the Parchment Valley Conference Center for the 2008 Foulk Family Reunion.  We went out there for the weekend, and Corrine meet a lot of family she never met before and I met some I hadn’t even met before, we had a great time.  We went on a wagon ride around the area, played games, had a bon fire, and just had a great time catching up with family.  Incase you don’t know my maternal grandmother was a Foulk, so this was a reunion that brought together all of her brother’s and sisters and all of their kids.  So I covers 5 generations of people.  So it was a lot of fun.  Here are a few pictures of the weekend.  Hopefully Foulks, will add some more to the Foulkfamily.org website, so check it out to see more.

On our way to the Reunion we saw a sign for Rio Grande, OH, and then a sign for the Bob Evans Farm, that is the location of the first Bob Evans.  So on Sunday afternoon on our return from the reunion, we decided to stop by and check out the farm, so we walked through the house where Bob Evans lived, and walked through where the first Bob Evans Restaurant was at.  So it was a fun weekend. Here’s a picture of Corrine infront of the mailbox and home of Bob Evans.
