Amish Worship Service in Our Neighborhood
We came upon this family as we drove to our own worship services on Sunday morning. This time their church service was in a home on a hillside just to the east of our road. We came home a different way so I could capture a photo from another angle. By this time some were […]
Springtime Photos and Something to Ponder
I still have some springtime photos in my file that haven’t been posted. Our Redbud tree had beautiful blooms this spring. I love when the ferns are young and the periwinkles are just about the same shade of fresh new green. ~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~

Our July 4th Excursion
When Cerwin asked me a few days earlier if I wanted to go for a drive and get lunch on July 4th, you know I was on board as I envisioned a few back roads. I suggested going to Plum Creek for an early lunch. It has been a while since we were there. It […]

Hummingbirds
Our hummingbirds were late in coming to the feeders this year, but now we are seeing them every day – many times a day. It is especially fun to see them using the feeder we bought at the Philadelphia Flower Show in March. It was interesting to look over these pictures and notice that each […]

The Budweiser Clydesdales at Flinchbaugh’s Orchard & Farm Market
~~~ Tuesday, June 25 ~~~ We saw this event on Facebook events and thought it would be a fun thing to do during a week that wasn’t very busy for us. Flinchbaugh’s Orchard & Farm Market is near Hellam, PA – about 45 minutes from our house. The Clydesdales were under this large tent. The […]
Hershey Family Picnic – My Siblings and Their Families
~~~ Sunday, June 23 ~~~ Each year we have a good spread of food when our extended family gets together at our niece (Amy) and her husband’s (Kevin) place. Every household brings food items they chose from a meal organizer website. It was a warm day as we met in the old airplane hangar but […]
A New Birdbath
We’ve had this burgundy birdbath for many years and had no intention of changing it. But woke up to this scene a few days ago. Apparently, a raccoon tried to get a drink during the night – and I don’t blame it because we had a series of very hot days. It was probably using […]
Saying Goodbye to a Friend – Lunch – Hospital Visit
~~~ Monday, July 1 ~~~ Yesterday we went to West Nottingham Cemetery, Colora, Maryland, to say goodbye to our friend Betty Boyle. The entire service was held at her burial site. We appreciated spending a bit of time with her children, Kathy and Ken and a few grandchildren. It was especially meaningful to listen to […]
Amish Church
~~~ Sunday, June 23 ~~~ This time Amish church was at a home on our road. As far as I know they are the only Amish family who lives on our one-and-a-half-mile road. I took these pictures very quickly as we were driving to a family picnic. The house is on the corner of two […]
A Relaxing Bluegrass Evening
~~~ Saturday Evening, June 22 ~~~ We saw this event listed in local events on Facebook at Mount Gretna Tabernacle, and since we enjoy bluegrass, it caught our attention. It has been many years since we went to the Tabernacle – and it’s only 13 minutes from our house. We love being retired with time […]

Day Is Setting in the West and Something to Ponder
I love looking to the west on a warm summer evening. This time I noticed something glittering under the leaves (center), so zoomed in to check on the glitter. Looks like spiderwebs and lots of insets. ~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~
