Traveling Into a Beautiful Sunset
Tuesday, December 15 The sunset was breathtakingly beautiful as we traveled from a quick delivery to Leola on the way to a birthday party on the western side of Elizabethtown.

Sunday Visitors

Cloudy Sunrise & Evening Display of Saturn and Jupiter
Friday, December 18 It was a beautiful, cloudy and snowy sunrise By evening I went outside to see if I could find Saturn and Jupiter – most evenings had been cloudy, so I was not able to sight them. It was certainly easy to find the moon in a clear part of the southwestern sky. […]
Our Christmas Day
Our day started with coffee at Nate (grandson) and Lauree’s house. We planned to deliver their Christmas gift before Christmas, then were able to give it to them at Jeff and Chris’ house last week. I teased them that now they have to invite us for coffee so we can see their house. They took […]

December Gifts
