Going with Cerwin on a DHIA Run
Thursday, July 12 Due to the fact that TFC is not currently building a chapel, Cerwin needed something to do – especially in winter when there are no truck shows and places to take the mobile chapel – so he asked our son Jere (CEO/Manager for Lancaster DHIA) if he needed any drivers for picking […]

A Drive Through Amish Country in Ohio

We have to keep them from taking over the walkway and other flowers. Information from the Internet: Gooseneck Loosestrife produces unique spikes of white […]
Lunch with Our Favorite Living Veteran on July 4

There were also strawberries and whipped cream. After cake and ice cream, it was time for cards and gifts. I forget why there was a mustache in […]
Reseeding the Ground
Saturday Evening, June 30 When I went outside to take photos of our flowers, I noticed our Amish neighbor planting something in the field where the wheat had recently been harvested – probably something to feed his goats. Love country life.
