Sunset In Our Valley
Several days ago I noticed a yellow glow outside our windows and went for my camera. It was a beautiful evening. The day lilies looked pretty in the evening sun. Since I only have a few weeks to enjoy the daisies, I try to advantage of pictures. Changing the angle of the sunlight changes the […]
Oh, What A Day
Today’s Truck Rally was one like we never had in 35 years – rain and cool weather all day. About 90 (I haven’t heard the final count) brave truckers brought their beautiful rigs. That was a small Truck Rally “fleet” for us, but everyone had a good day. Another first for the rally – the […]
Shopping & Celebrating
Monday, June 15 I had Jere and Kristen’s three youngest boys while they took Jana to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia for a test to follow up on her SMA – a secondary problem to her stomach pain and nausea – probably due to fast weight lost. (Superior mesenteric artery syndrome is a rare digestive system […]

Saturday, June 13 ~~~ The Gift We were surprised to receive a package from our granddaughter Lydia. It was from Koinonia Farm where she had been serving on a work camp. It arrived a few days before she did. Everything is delicious, but the Hickory Smoked Pecans are fabulous. ~~~ The Dinner Concert A friend […]
Colors of Summer
Beauty in our yard and the fields surrounding us. Begonia Corn Crown Vetch Honeysuckle I don’t know what this is, but thought it was pretty. The mulberry bush is so heavy with berries that this branch is on the ground. Fern Mint tea Crepe myrtle, daisies, and day lilies The day lilies are at their […]
Mother, Doris, Lydia and Our Daisies
Cerwin’s youngest sister Doris, from Minnesota, and Mother had a delightful time when Doris spent a week (plus) in Pennsylvania while her husband was in Grenada preaching at a week-long crusade. (Doris doesn’t do well with that kind of heat and humidity, so Bob suggested that she spend the week with her Mother.) Doris took Mother outside […]
What To Do With The Tree?
As soon as we noticed that this tree in our front yard was not joining the others in growing new leaves this spring, we discussed a few ways for taking it down. I was not comfortable with Cerwin taking it down and getting our sons to help. It is not super large, but it is very […]

In Honor of Our Fathers
My dad, Bruce Hershey, (left) and Cerwin’s dad, Elvin High, (right) were born the same year – just four months apart – and grew up during the depression. They were farmers and knew how to work long and hard. Both were godly, honest men who loved their wife and children. They became friends because their […]
The Sky & A Bird
May 31 to June 8 Passing storms created some beautiful skies in late May and early June. The birds are enjoying our beautiful warm weather. Getting ready to take off. You again? I thought if I came back on this side of the feeder you wouldn’t find me. Spraying the no-till corn field. Soon we […]
The Baptism of Bryan & Crystal
Sunday Afternoon, May 31 This was an incredibly happy day for the High family – especially Cerwin’s mother who led Crystal to the Lord last year. How exciting is that – leading a granddaughter to the Lord at the age of 96? Baptizing was in Landis Homes pool so Cerwin’s mother could be there. In the […]
Chapel Construction Update For Ocala, Florida
Cerwin had a workday on the chapel today – with five men helping him – so I thought it was time for an update – and I know Chaplain John is anxious to see new pictures of the chapel that will be coming his way later this summer. This is what the exterior of the chapel […]
American Truck Historical Society Truck Show – May 28-30 – Part 3 of 3
Saturday, May 30 This is what the parking lot looked like outside our chapel window at sunrise on Saturday morning. The trucks looked nice in the morning sun. Our first visitor was this Wal-Mart driver. He was waiting for the registration line to open. We were surprised at how many trucks arrived on Saturday morning. By […]
