Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
Wednesday Evening, May 17 Jana with her silly dad. Kristen was walking toward her spot to pose with Jana. We were happy that grandparents were invited to witness the seniors (and a few others) receive their awards. There were delicious snacks for those who arrived early. The chocolate fountain was a favorite. The strawberries were my […]
It was a beautiful day to cut garden tea. The locust trees were blooming… …and fields were being prepared for crops. Anthony was here for a few hours and enjoyed helping me cut our mint tea. Our next job was washing it. Then it was seeped in boiling water. Anthony was no longer here when […]
I saw these in the past few days. God created the most amazing critters.
Monday, May 15 We left the Myers just before 7:00 AM – in a sprinkling of rain. It was early springtime in Maine – with very young leaves. Two hours later we were in work traffic. Then it rained again. Keeping up with a Greyhound When we are going through Hartford we are about halfway […]
May 14 ~~~ Morning Lydia making breakfast. I think these are called Eggs in a Cloud. She and Hannah have an apartment on a farm where both milk cows – several miles away. These are made by separating the eggs, whipping the whites, then adding the yokes, cheese, seasonings and whatever you desire: bacon, ham, spinach, etc. […]
Saturday Evening, May 13 (Since we were in Maine I should probably say “suppah”.) 🙂 The Sea Dog is in the Bowdoin Mill complex not far from the Myers house. There were a few loons enjoying the Androscoggin River next to the window where we enjoyed our meal. It was difficult to photograph them because of […]
Saturday, May 13 This was Lydia’s first choice for the place to eat after her graduation. The restaurant is a floating ferry ship. I found this history online: Ship’s Log The history of DiMillo’s on the Water 1941 Commissioned “The New York,” it ran as a car ferry between New Castle, Delaware and Pennsville, New Jersey. […]
Saturday, May 13 These are the photos I took after the graduation ceremony – pretty much in the order I took them. We went outside to look for Lydia. Found her! With her instructors Classmates Grandpa giving her a hug A hug from her mom Diane, Lydia, and Mark Checking on a cell phone picture […]
Saturday, May 13 Diane watered some of her seedlings before we left for York County Community College, Ogunquit, Maine. We watched a downy woodpecker for a bit. When I went outside to wait at the van for the others, I noticed dew drops on some of the new growth around the side of the house. […]
Friday, May 5 We left early – as usual – to make the nine-and-a half to ten hour trip to Maine. It seems that we have been traveling in rain a lot the past few weeks. I took this picture at 5:30, and we had already been on the road about twenty minutes. This picture was […]
Wednesday, May 10 It was the perfect afternoon to put lime on our yard. From the Internet: When lawns are weedy, patchy in spots or turn yellow, it may be a sign that the pH balance of your yard is out of whack. One of the primary methods of correcting the problem is to add […]
Sunday, May 7 Jesse and Jared in the bottom sleeper of the chapel tractor. They were with us over night – because their parents were chaperons for Manheim Central’s Post Prom – all night at a rec center. I always enjoy this view of the Susquehanna just before we get on Route 30 west. It was […]
We love you! Grandpa & Grandma High
Saturday Evening May 6 Jere and Kristen asked if I would be able to go along to take pictures at the location where many of the seniors go for pre-prom pictures. Of course I was delighted go join in the excitement. I took more that 600 pictures, but chose to post only a few of my […]
Saturday, May 6 I usually travel in the rig when we take the chapel to events, but on this day I wanted to leave the show early to take pictures of our local prom (I will post those tomorrow night), so went to the corner of RTS 501 and 322 at Brickerville to wait for […]
I love watching our birds in May, because there are always those I don’t see at other times of the year. Some are migrating, others come to the feeders more frequently because they are feeding babies. Male cardinal and rose-breasted grosbeak Male grosbeak Female grosbeak Ruby-throated hummingbird Female red-bellied woodpecker I especially enjoyed watching them one day […]
