Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
June 22 & 23 The featured antique truck in North Hall It is interesting that the lighting in the hall made the photos appear that the truck is speckled. 🙂 Rigidply supplied us with a beautiful rig for our stage. The Kingsmen Quartet did a fabulous job of blessing Saturday evening’s audience with great gospel […]
Saturday, June 22 The first five pictures are of what I saw as I walked toward the fairground buildings – following the Parade of Trucks. Making sure his truck wheels look good. I liked his reflection in the chrome of the truck parked next to him. You can see his hat in the upper right […]
TFC Truck Rally 2019 – June 22 Cerwin led the parade of trucks back into the fairgrounds at 11:50 – just fifty minutes after leaving. I tried to choose a variety of trucks and colors for this post. If you want to see all 214 pictures I took of the returning trucks, go to my […]
Saturday, June 22 Cerwin was ready to lead the Parade of Trucks by 11:00 am. Our truck parkers and the fire police did an amazing job of getting the trucks on the road. The fairgrounds was emptied in 45 minutes. Ten minutes later they began re-entering the fairgrounds. If you want to see all 206 […]
Saturday, June 22 Love this old pickup truck. Trucks came in a continuous stream from 9:30 to 10:30. Oh, look, here comes the Weaver family. Kate is our niece. Lincoln making sure that he can see me. 🙂 The A-Z AG Repair truck holds my favorite Nathaniel, Abby, and Anthony. The fairground was getting full. […]
Saturday, June 22 Our day began at 6 am at Quentin Haus Restaurant with about 40 volunteers. Mark Leatherman and his crew parked 221 trucks by 11 am. Our son Jeff’s old Chevy His son-in-law Donovan was right behind him. Diana (Donovan’s wife and Jeff’s daughter) brought up the rear of this threesome. It looks […]
The other day Transport For Christ had a Zoom Video Conference. (This is a picture of Bunny, Ron, Mike and Joe in the office board room – on my computer screen.) We could see each participant’s name on top of the screen – and their pictures if they had a camera on their computer. We […]
Saturday, June 23 and Sunday, June 24 Jere and Kristen were stationed at the meal ticket and information table. I have a few hundred pictures on Facebook.

Jordan is in charge of the Benefit Auction – and does a fabulous job. Lydia prepared numbers for the […]
Friday and Saturday, June 15 and 16 These are some general photos I took at the truck show. Trucks and things that I thought were interesting. Sons and grandsons of Hobby Horse Trucking relaxing at the show… …this one was relaxing under the trailer. Doug Maney (who organizes the show) introduced Chaplain Jake before the […]
Sunday, June 25 Susie and Sam – Sunday morning welcoming committee. 🙂 They stayed at our house overnight. The Perrys provided the worship service between 10:30 and 11:30 am for about 200 people. Following the worship service we went outside for the new chapel dedication. Cerwin opened with a few comments on how this chapel […]
June 24, 2017 – Continued Trucks returning from the parade of trucks. I understand that this is a new trailer. I commend the owner on the choice of lettering. Effects of the early morning rain created a splash and play area. 🙂 The 171 trucks are all back on the grounds of Lebanon Expo. The […]
Saturday, June 24 I posted all 773 pictures in a Facebook album: https://www.facebook.com/doris.j.high/media_set?set=a.10154710812052322.1073741875.612697321&type=3&pnref=story If you like trucks, you are welcome to go there. The Expo’s new sign is attention-getting. Packaging cookies on Friday evening This waitress is my “protector”! This year she sat in “my” seat until I arrived. I am not sure how many years ago […]
Sunday, June 25 – after the Truck Rally Celebration After I saw Jack running and jumping into his mother’s arms like this – too fast for me to get photos – I asked them to replay it! 🙂 I didn’t realize that I was going to get some cute silhouettes. The Stoners – Will and Sherry and […]
Saturday Evening, July 9 We were honored to be invited to a nearby Mennonite church to enjoy a meal for the out-of-town visitors to the Ohio Truck Rally. There were about 75 in attendance – from Ohio, Indiana, Kansas, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Missouri, and Ontario, Canada. There were probably other states/provinces represented that I forgot to mention. As you will […]
We were in Ohio for the Parade of Lights – the first portion of the TFC Ohio Truck Rally. It was beautiful to see 250-plus big rigs at night. There will me more pictures after I have time to go through them.
Saturday, June 25 and Sunday, June 26 I am posting a variety of Truck Rally pictures here – for the benefit of those who don’t have Facebook. If you want to see all 652 pictures from the 2016 Truck Rally, go to my Facebook “Album” https://www.facebook.com/doris.j.high/photos_albums and click on Truck Rally 2016 #1 or #2. Drivers bring […]
Saturday, June 25 I am going to post a few pictures here, but most of them will be on my Facebook page. My camera was working okay during the first hour, then I noticed strange lines and red markings on the pictures. I was disappointed that the sensor chose this day to go bad. Consequently […]
Wednesday, June 22 – Cerwin asked Ian to help him get the International Chapel ready for the Truck Rally. The first four photos are by Inge. The chapel under construction for Texas is in the background. When Ian was finished washing the chapel, he mowed yard at the International Office. Friday evening, June 24, was setup for […]
June 1 to 15 Wednesday, June 1. I received a call from Chrome Shop Mafia saying they had just shipped a partial skid of goodies to our office. I was expecting a box of “goodies” from them, http://www.chromeshopmafia.com/truck-shows/ because they offered to give us goody bags for the first 125 drivers who register at the Truck Rally, but a […]
Sunday, January 10 It has been a tradition for many years that we combine our Truck Rally and Lancaster Banquet meetings in one afternoon – because some members are on both committees. Just before the Truck Rally meeting started, someone noticed the rainbow. It wasn’t at a great location for us, as it was behind […]
Saturday, January 9 We were pleased that Saturday, January 9, was an open day in our schedule so we could attend the Celebration of Life service for our friend Tish Jones at Davisville Church, Southampton, PA (near Philadelphia). I took two pictures of slides that were scrolling on the screen. Tish is on the right. […]
Saturday Afternoon, June 27 This post should have been ahead of last night’s entry, but I guess it won’t matter if the last two entries are not in chronological order. 🙂 Jesse Rothacker with Forgotten Friends is a Truck Rally favorite – of the children and adults. Since Jere helped Jesse find his spot in […]
Saturday, June 27 Our evening program began with a half-hour concert by The Browns, Le Mars, Iowa. They are without a doubt one of my favorite gospel music groups, and I love when they add an Irish lilt to their songs. We had a great crowd for a cool, rainy evening. Two brothers, a sister, […]
Saturday, June 27 We were supposed to have a regular climbing wall, but it was not workable when we had to move inside – so this was a nice replacement. Jared going up the wall. This is what it looks like on the other end – the person who is holding the rope for the one climbing […]
Saturday, June 27 Auctioneer/trucker Dave White selling a gift basket while main auctioneer, Joel Heisey, points out a bidder. One good thing about a rainy day, the auction crowd was larger than usual, and the profit was up $2,000.00 from the previous year. Gift baskets and food sold very well. The children – and their […]
Saturday, June 27 Because of the rain, we were pleased that 87 drivers brought their rigs – even though that was a very low number of trucks for our truck rally. As we went throughout the day and many things – except the weather – fell into place, we became assured that God was indeed […]
Friday Evening, June 26 & Saturday Morning, June 27 Those who were looking for Truck Rally pictures probably thought I would never get to these. I usually post pictures in order by the date I took them, and rarely post pictures just a day or so after they happen. If I do, it is on Facebook. […]
Today’s Truck Rally was one like we never had in 35 years – rain and cool weather all day. About 90 (I haven’t heard the final count) brave truckers brought their beautiful rigs. That was a small Truck Rally “fleet” for us, but everyone had a good day. Another first for the rally – the […]
January 17 & 18 Judi and her children enjoying window sunshine. They just got word today – Friday, January 23 – that the paperwork has been completed for them to leave Pennsylvania and head home with their little guy – who is in the process of being adopted. I am going to miss all four of them, […]
