Red Oak Restaurant in Bishop Hill

These are Dala horses. They are a swedish good luck symbol. I just love the colors of them! This picture was taken at the Colony Store in Bishop Hill.
Beautiful tulips in front of the Red Oak restaurant. The gal that owns this adorable restaurant brings in lots of flowers from her gardens and places them on her tables.


This is the porch where she puts out the Swedish flag and the American flag.


This is the sign on the side of her building. I just love the thought of "Comfort food and Pie Co."




Here is a large Dala that hangs out in the garden. I didn't see one like this at the Colony Store otherwise I would've bought one for my garden.
This is a reataurant that I have been to many times with the special people in my life. It is just one of my favorite places to go. It has soft music playing in the background, beautiful flowers and a little patio out back where you can sit and eat a fabulous lunch.
