~~~ Friday, November 18 ~~~ I love looking out one of our southeastern windows and seeing the morning sunshine on our decorative grass. Ian messaged me a day earlier to ask if he could bring his friend Ryleigh to meet us. We knew about this friendship and were anxious to meet her. It was fun […]
~~~ Thursday Evening, November 17 ~~~ This birthday group (Jordan, Nicole, Zach and Gloria) chose The Mill for their 2022 birthday dinner. Cerwin and I arrived early and were seated at our reserved table in the basement. I like unusual mixes of fruit juices, so the Cran-Pear Cooler got my attention. It included cranberry juice, […]
~~~ Thursday, November 17 Jenna, Jade and Drake ~~~ Our granddaughter Jenna messaged me earlier in the week, asking if there was a day that suited us for her to bring the children and visit a bit. We settled on Thursday morning. She came bearing gifts. Items that she makes so people can purchase them […]
~~~ Wednesday, November 16 ~~~ The birds have been extra busy since cold weather hit our area. Downy Woodpeckers Nuthatches These two (house finch and nuthatch) weren’t sure they liked being so close to each other. Tufted Titmouse and house finch Juncos

~~~ Tuesday, November 15 ~~~ Nancy messaged me a day earlier, saying she was in the mood for a sister day. 🙂 Now that is a great message to receive on a Monday morning. She was originally going to stop in for me, but their car ended up in the garage, so I was the […]
~~~ Sunday Evening, November 13 6:00 pm ~~~ Abby our granddaughter and Nate’s wife, wrote this birthday message on the walk that enters their farmhouse. Following a delicious supper – steak on the grill, mac and cheese, green beans, deep fried cauliflower and pickles – Anthony and Abby lit the candles. It looks like there […]
~~~ Saturday, November 12 ~~~ After leaving the craft show and taking pictures of the covered bridge (two previous posts), we stopped to see Sam Rittenhouse and his new living quarters. He moved from his house in Lansdale to a room at his daughter Debbie and son-in-law Lanny’s house. It’s nice for us, because he […]
~~~ Saturday, October 12 ~~~ As we were driving away from the craft show on Saturday, the lighting on the water under the covered bridge caught my attention. This is located just across the driveway from the Farm Show Exhibit Hall where the vendors were located (see previous post). We were early for our next […]
~~~ Saturday, November 12 Manheim Farm Show Exhibit Hall ~~~ It’s always fun to go to the craft shows in this exhibit hall – partly because we know many of the vendors. This was how I convinced Cerwin to go along – food! He was talking to a friend while waiting on his food. This […]

“Are you taking my picture?” “Is this a better pose?” “Or maybe this is better.”
~~~ Thursday, November 10 ~~~ It was about 11:15 in the morning when I noticed the beginning of soybean harvest across the road from our house. The soybeans go into the bin, the plants and other stuff in the field come out the back. I took most of these pictures through windows in our kitchen/dining […]
~~~ Thursday Morning, November 10 7:06 am ~~~ I first noticed the morning sun which was changing the sky from dawn to full sunlight and took this picture from a bedroom window. I went outside (still in my housecoat – you can do that when you live in the country) – to enjoy the beautiful […]
I enjoyed watching this goldfinch for a bit the other day as it posed on a shepherds hook right outside our dining area window. The males are much prettier than this when they become a brilliant yellow by March. Male and female look alike this time of year. They seem to stay here all year […]
