A Chenoweth cousin bus trip proved to be an excellent activity during the Portland reunion. A trip to Amish country at Shipshewana, Indiana, complete with Amish home cooking was the order of the day on Friday. Not to mention displays and hands on demonstrations of Amish living.

The scene of the crime.

It's Saturday. Time to do serious things. The reunion photograph. The last formal supper with entertainment. John Egge's history lesson! Here are the Moosman Strings entertaining the cousins.

John Egge brought a history and stories of the Indiana Chenoweths. And a right cantankerous lot we are!

Then we ate up the Chenweth reunion, anniversary, wedding cake which is another growing family tradition. In 2006, we were going to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the marriage of John Chenoweth and Mary Calvert. But we found out that this marriage actually happened earlier and in Philidelphia area instead of Baltimore. Not to be undone, we made it a celebration of the Cora Hiatt traditional story line from the 1925 history book she authored. Besides, we all came to eat a piece of cake or two.

John Chapman (Johnny Appleseed) is buried at Fort Wayne within two miles of the reuion hotel. A more fitting historical entertainment could not be more appropriate to the end of the fifth reunion.
