October 20, 2026 – Lisbon Falls, Maine, to Sturbridge, Massachusetts We left Mark and Diane’s home about 11 am with Diane following us. Our first stop was to get enough fuel to take us to the Sturbridge gas station where the cost was just over $4. While Cerwin fueled the car, Diane went to a […]
Monday, October 20 Our day started with a large flock of turkeys walking through Mark and Diane’s yard. We first saw them across the street, but Mark and Diane knew they would eventually be in their yard. I had my best view of them from our bedroom, where I could see them in one of […]
It was a cold start to the day (25 degrees) with lots of frost, which was quite noticeable on the hood of our car. We saw more beautiful trees on the way to church. We were hoping to see Mt Washington, which is now snow covered, but there was too much haze over the mountain. […]

After eating in the breakfast room of our motel in Sturbridge, we headed northeast with a goal of reaching Sanford, Maine, by 10:30 am. The morning started out gray and cloudy. After being on the road for about an hour the sun came out displaying many leaves in their full glory. We arrived at His, […]
We left home shortly after 8:30 am this morning in a light drizzle that lasted most of the day. During our drive to today’s destination – a motel in Sturbridge, Massachusetts – Cerwin turned the wipers on and off many times. The price of gas was really good at our first stop in Bloomsbury, New […]
Tuesday Evening, October 14 Jordan, Haven, and Nicole were here for their 2026 Two Cousin’s Restaurant birthday meal. I placed the order of three subs and a cheese steak stromboli (for Cerwin), and they picked it up on the way to our house. Before I took a second picture, Jordan said, “Maybe I should put […]
Sunday, October 11 Following the morning services at White Oak Church many of the ladies and a few girls met in the fellowship hall for our anual Secret Sister’s Luncheon The committee had the room and tables decorated beautifully – creating an uplifting atmosphere to the dreary day on the outside. We were instructed to […]
October 11 Remember I told you yesterday that the soybean harvest in both fields next to us was because rain was predicted for the entire day on Sunday. We followed this Amish carriage for a bit just before they turned into this home along our road. It looks like many of them got wet before […]
Saturday, October 10 It was interesting to watch two different farms having their soybeans harvested at the same time. That was because the beans were ready and the next day (Sunday) was supposed to be a full day of rain. I first noticed the combine below our yard. The stalks and trash come out the […]
Saturday, October 10 We enjoyed our quarterly breakfast at Olde Hickory Restaurant with Cerwin’s hunting friends. There were mostly High’s this time. Left side of the table – clockwise: Ronnie High, Marv (Tex) High, Cerwin High, Eloise High, Phoebe and Glenn Burkholder, George Eckman, and Marv High (Eloise’s husband). It seems they always come up […]

Deb and Roy recently returned from a week-long trip to the Jackson Hole, Grand Tetons, and Yellowstone area, and we were anxious to hear about their trip with six other members of Roy’s family. We have seen many of their photos, but hearing about the details was so much fun – especially since we visited […]
Three things called us to attend our local farm show today: The beautiful weather, Jere and Kristen were working at the French fry stand, and Cerwin had cash from his parttime job at Lancaster DHIA to use for food at the farm show. The French fry stand always has one of the longest waiting lines. […]
It was a cool, crisp, fall morning, so I waited until noon when the temperature was warmer before working in a flowerbed. The only sound I heard was a tractor in a nearby field as the soil was prepared for a winter crop. Quiet, with only the sound of a tractor is a delightful way […]
