Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
Sunday, March 14 – My final post from the shower. Since Deb doesn’t have a blog, I asked her to send photos that she thinks I may not have gotten. I will mark her photos. ~~~ Posed Photos with Jana A group of friends This took me back to when Renee and Jana were school […]

Left to Right: Julia (bridesmaid), Jana, Caitlin (bridesmaid) and Emily (maid of honor). Mackenzie (bridesmaid) was unable to attend. Jana and Caitlin Jana and Julia Jana and Emily. Emily is […]
Sunday, March 14. 11 am to 2 pm drop-in brunch. For our granddaughter, Jana, who is marrying Austin Garber in May. Our daughter Deb and I were asked to take pictures of the day. Deb arrived early and took pictures until 12:30 – before she needed to go home. I stayed until the end and […]
Mid-February Remember that God values you for who you are, not what you do. The difference between mediocre and excellent is usually a very small amount of effort. To belittle is to be little. Be one who says positive things about others. Be loyal to your spouse. Express admiration in public.
Wednesday, March 10 – 1:00 PM I love reading all the chalk quotes in this restaurant in Leola. I understand that Gracie writes them. Inge, Cerwin, Barbara, Sam, Peg and Bunny. We have each (except Barbara) served with Transport For Christ for many years and are still involved with TFC Global in various ways. We […]
Tuesday, March 9 – Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area This was our second trip to Middle Creek Wildlife area this year – a record for us – to see the migrating Snow Geese and Tundra Swans. You can tell we are retired. 🙂 Our first sighting of them was from across the lake while driving […]
A nearby creek There were lots of birds hanging around our birdfeeders. I am glad for a spring-like day in our area today, but it is fun to remember what it looked like around here one month ago.
Early February Decide on a daily basis to not complain. Complaining feeds the fuel of all irritations. What you think determines what you do. Know your strengths and weaknesses and work on them.
Saturday, March 6 We enjoy visiting this craft show – at Manheim Farm Show Exhibition building – done by friends, young ladies from our church, plus others we don’t know. We go because we enjoy seeing what is there – not so much because we need anything. At our age we are trying to eliminate […]
We had a lot of snow in early February, meaning I have lots of pictures from that time period. Cerwin shoveled a bit of a path to the mailbox. Two Dark-eyed Juncos perched on a ledge under the house roof for protection from the snow. A male cardinal perched on a dogwood branch enjoying the […]
I took these pictures on a variety of days – since the beginning of the year. We have a lot of walkers on our road. There must have been something going on in the Amish community because I saw a variety of buggies and vans. You don’t often see an Amish buggy being pulled by […]
Early February The next time you are in church, sit in a front row. You will be amazed at how much more you will learn. Pray with perseverance and expectancy. Pick a passage or chapter of the Bible and memorize it. Put loose change in a jar – when full donate to a charity. You […]
Friday Afternoon, February 18 I heard a loud thud and knew a large bird hit the window. I quickly went to a window and saw a hawk with a bird he had taken from one of our feeders. 🙁 I think it was a bit dizzy from hitting the window, because it immediately landed and […]
Monday Evening, March 1 We had a pretty, evening drive to Kountry Kitchen, north of Manheim. Oh, look who met us there. Our sweet great grandson – Bennett (playing with a straw) – and his parents. This birthday treat was for Donovan’s birthday in early February. Diana’s quesadilla meal. Donovan’s Philadelphia steak Cerwin’s ham loaf […]
From early February
