Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
Saturday, July 28 We were on the road shortly after 5:30 am – facing a beautiful moon. The misty morning added beauty to the early morning drive. The York-Adams Chapter of TFC thought this event would be a good place to represent TFC and share the gospel with some people from their area. It was […]
Wednesday, July 25 We arrived at Oregon Dairy Restaurant early, so I took time to go outside to the children’s and family area. I have eaten there many times, but have never explored this area. The deer are a nice attraction. The fawns are so cute. Before long the Sauder cousins began arriving. I think […]
Tuesday, July 24 As usual, the ladies at the TFC office made the shipping room table look beautiful. I liked Dan’s choice of wording when he decorated the cake. Jeff’s passion was mountain climbing when he was a young man. Cerwin, Dan, and Jeff It looks like Dan is telling us that it is time […]
This is just a sampling of the critters that were outside our kitchen window this week. A pretty female cardinal This looks like a really young squirrel. She was so busy that I couldn’t get a good photo. This little wren is the noisiest of them all.
We had rain every day this week – Saturday through Friday – except yesterday. By this evening Cerwin estimates that we had about ten inches of rain in the past seven days. There were other areas that had much more. There have been many flooded roads and houses with water in their basements. Thankfully our […]
Sunday Noon, July 22 He chose JoBoy’s in Lititz for his birthday meal. Showing Grandpa some of the work he and the crew are doing for Wolfe House & Building Movers. They lift houses and buildings when the foundation needs to be changed or it has to be moved to a new location. He does […]
Saturday Evening, July 21, and Sunday Morning, July 22 It was delightful to spend a few hours with our friends Peggy and Clayton – from Indiana – as they traveled home from a vacation to the northeast. Places like Maine, Massachusetts and Connecticut. It was kind of spur-of-the-moment after Peggy texted me on Thursday evening […]
Saturday, July 21 It was a dreary day, but there were already a large number of trucks on the lot when we arrived about 8:00 am. I read online that there were about 250 trucks by the end of the day – probably half of the usual number of trucks. The chapel was already placed […]
I had not refilled our hummingbird feeders in awhile, so they had been empty for about two weeks. I went back in the house – after refilling our three feeders – to clean up the syrup container and was surprised to see a hummingbird at one of the feeders. It was less than five minutes. […]
Friday Morning, July 20 Jere and Kristen had an appointment in Philadelphia on Friday morning, so they asked if I could take Ian to Simon Lever by 8:00 am. Simon Lever’s website says: We are a people firm…We just happen to be experts at CPA work and business consulting. Leap Day is set up for students […]
Thursday Night, July 19 Cerwin noticed a possum in one of our birdfeeders on Thursday night when he was preparing our Friday morning coffee and took these pictures. I was already sleeping. I enjoy seeing these nighttime critters – not necessarily in our birdfeeders. The other night there was a racoon eating from a ground […]
Tuesday, July 17 Getting ready to water flowers. His next job was to fill the birdbath. I think most of the water went on the ground. 🙂 Then we did some farming and played a game. That was fun!
It was beautiful to be outside on this lazy, hazy summer morning.
July 16, 2018 Jere invited me to arrive about noon to take a few pictures – especially the group photo. Cerwin was invited for lunch and to participate in any afternoon session that was of interest to him – since he in now an employee and picks up milk/blood/forage samples each week. It was an […]
I enjoy seeing these beautiful flowers in a flowerbed next to our house. From the Internet: These lilies are oriental hybrids and are perennials. They can be grown in your garden and require a relatively minimal amount of care compared to many other types of flowers. Keeping the roots of this plant happy ensures the […]
