About 100 people visited the Rentschler Farm Museum on a warm Sunday afternoon in Saline.
"It's been a good, steady turnout," said Bob Lane, who dutifully clicked every time a person, family or friends entered the property to tour the museum.

One of the most popular attractions for kids was the table where they painted pumpkins.

Meanwhile, members of the Saline Fiddlers plucked, strummed and sawed their hearts out for the appreciative audience.

Volunteers provided donuts and cider from Coleman's Farm.

Wilma Armbruster Trachet and Elaine Masters showed off their quits in front of the historic photos in one of the barns.

Sheep provided by the Drake farm are always a big attraction.

The sheep stayed out of the sun.

The scarecrow watches over the Rentscher Farm garden.

Scott Ackling provided a tractor and took the guests on wagon rides.

After an afternoon of fiddling, a wagon ride seemed like a good idea.

I look forward to sharing my hard work with the woke agenda.... that is why I worked to hard to share. Sharing that BIDEN love of corruption that he so promoted with his crooked Doctor JILL. So you voted for WORD SALAD? Hope she runs again TRUMP 2028!
Correction regarding the fire special assessment, council is authorizing ~$646,746 or 1 mill as a special assessment towards the city overall fire budget of $1,086,214. The remainder is funded from General fund.
Regarding the budget, it is more than inflation—proposed new positions are being added; facilities manager and economic development director, also a Water/Waste position (funded with utility fees).
