~~~ Friday, September 30 ~~~ Deb set up a photo shoot while Roy’s sister Mary was in the area and wanted us to be there too. Of course, one must have a brunch so we can hang out for a bit. Left to right: Barb (Roy’s mother), Mary (his sister), Deb (our daughter), Roy (our […]
I wasn’t feeding the birds very much during the summer for two reasons, the avian flu was in the area, and they can help carry the disease to chicken farms, also there is plenty of food for them because we live in farm country. The blue jays were the first to come back when I […]
~~~ Tuesday, September 27 ~~~ We wanted to hear about Nate’s archery hunt in Colorado, so invited them to our house and had fun listening to the hunting stories. The four young guys hunted on their own and had some exciting experiences calling elk. They also had license for bear. One of them got a […]
~~~ Saturday, September 24 ~~~ Cerwin thought it was time to activate our propane fireplace.
~~~ Friday Evening, September 23 ~~~ It was sometime in the mid-afternoon that our doorbell rang – and there to our surprise was Tom Kemp from Washington State. While we were enjoying a great visit, I thought that it would be nice to invite him to stay for supper, but I was planning leftovers, so […]
~~~ Friday, September 23 and Saturday September 24 ~~~ A general auction item that caught my eye. The general auction is a highlight of the weekend and raises lots of money for disaster relief. This little guy looks like he needs someone to love him. 🙂
We love you! Daddy and Mother High
~~~ Friday Morning, September 23 ~~~ Because they no longer make a quilt auction booklet and need a photo of the highest selling quilt from the previous year, I no longer have to make sure I have a photo of every quilt – freeing me to take pictures as I wish. It is much more […]
~~~ Friday Morning, September 23 ~~~ It’s always important for my taste buds to get an order of French fries after the heifer auction. 🙂 They were my brunch. After savoring each French fry, I walked into the craft auction arena to check out the many items that were displayed. I am always amazed at […]
~~~ Friday, September 23 11:00 AM Lebanon Valley Expo Center and Fairgrounds, Lebanon, PA ~~~ Heifer Auction Maybe it’s because I grew up on a dairy farm, but I enjoy seeing heifers and cows – especially the black and white Holsteins. Waiting for the auction to start This one has very little white on it. […]
~~~ Our Morning View on Thursday, September 20 ~~~ The photo doesn’t do justice to the beauty of the morning – especially when stepping outside for this shot.
Our daughter Deb set this up – using our nephew Jason’s truck. Lots more photos in a few days.
~~~ Friday, September 16 ~~~ During this walk, I purposed to stop and look more closely at things along the road and in our yard. I noticed a very sorry looking milkweed plant and because Monarch caterpillars love milkweed leaves, I looked more closely. Sure enough there were two who were eating every piece of […]
~~~ Sunday, September 25 ~~~ This is the bouquet we chose at the Share the Harvest table at church on Sunday morning. I love what Mary Kathryn is using as the flowers in her garden are winding down for the season. This one includes mint. The other side.
~~~ Lunch at Yoder’s on Tuesday, September 20 ~~~ Cerwin’s sister Velda called a few days earlier to see if we wanted to join them and Lowell and Elaine when they met at Yoder’s Restaurant to celebrate their birthdays. Yes! It suited us. We hadn’t seen Lowell and Elaine for a couple of years. Today […]
~~~ Friday, September 16 4:10 pm ~~~ The beautiful late afternoon called me to go outside with my camera. This cornfield is just below our house and along the road where I walk on nice afternoons. The corn tassels have done their job and produced the pollen that encourages the growth and ripening of the […]
