September 27 It is not unusual for us to see an Amish buggy or two on a Sunday morning, but when there were 7 or 8, we knew that church was at our closest neighbors on Mountain Road. All the others came from the west so did not need to go by our house. Notice […]
Monday Morning, September 28 We were supposed to check in by 9:10 this morning – and we did. There was no bed available, so I started in a comfortable chair. The black dot above my right eye was to indicate the eye that was going to experience surgery. My next move was to the hospital […]

Yesterday was a nice day, so I walked around the yard to see what was blooming or interesting. Since the dogwood leaves are dying the red berries (drupes) are showing brightly. Birds and small mammals notice the pretty red berries, eat them, and eventually spread the seeds. The Stone Crop is beautiful in its delicate […]

Monday, September 21 I was told to be at the Surgical Center by 7:00 am for my 8:00 am surgery. We arrived about 6:50 and after checking in, I was almost immediately called back for pre-op preparation. When I saw this picture, I told Cerwin he should have given me an alert so I could […]

Earlier this summer our niece Chelsey (who works at Sight and Sound) told me she would like to give us tickets for Sight and Sound. We decided to take advantage of that offer for our wedding anniversary. When she gets free tickets for family and friends, she has to wait until after midnight of the […]
Monday Evening, September 14 We went to one of our mutual favorite steakhouses – Texas Roadhouse in Ephrata We enjoy their warm dinner rolls with cinnamon butter. I enjoy their fruity mocktails.

Monday, September 14 It was late morning when we began to hear the sounds of equipment harvesting corn from the field across the road. The field in front of the corn is soybeans which are turning yellow – meaning it will also be ready for harvest in the near future. The truck in the middle […]
Sunday Evening, September 13 The neighbor’s bison are not always in this field which is close to the road when we go home from Jere and Kristen’s house, so that along with the sunset, I thought I may get some good pictures. Cerwin stopped so I could get out of the car to get a […]
