Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
~~~ Saturday, January 29 ~~~ This is the result of a friend asking me to take a picture of their woodlot from our house. There you are Sharyn. I used the Rohrer farm to locate your place on the hill. Taken from our front porch. 🙂
It looks like someone is getting a delivery of bales.
~~~ Wednesday, January 19 ~~~ We left the house shortly before 11 am to do a few things in the Ephrata area. I love these days that create something interesting for us to do in the middle of the week. Especially during winter weeks that are not busy. This time we chose Ephrata as our […]
~~~ Tuesday, January 18 ~~~
~~~ Monday, January 17 It was a beautiful morning. ~~~ Our front yard view Backyard and woods Closeup view of two leaves that ended up on our porch – after the snow. As much as I enjoy a beautiful sunrise, a snowy landscape is also pretty on an early morning.
~~~ Sunday Evening, January 16 ~~~ Flurries started about the time we got home from the High Family lunch – late afternoon. By 7:30 pm it looked like this. I love watching snow flurries at nighttime.

~~~ Sunday afternoon, January 16 ~~~ Mel and Velda Rhoads and their family organized this year’s winter get-together. We were on the first floor of Hopewell Forge (formerly Abundant Living) near Lititz. This High family is Cerwin’s siblings, their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Dorretta organized the meal on Sign-Up Genius. That way we could […]
Last week during our “midweek excursion” we did a variety of things in the Lancaster area. I purchased a new pair of winter boots at Boscov’s (Park City Shopping Center). I would have been embarrassed to wear my old ones to church, a restaurant, or store during a snowy day. I buy lots of things […]
~~~ Wednesday Evening, January 12 ~~~ Our grandson Jordan messaged us the day before to check if we would be home on Wednesday evening. He said he would bring us supper. He messaged us the next day to say he would be stopping by Two Cousins Pizza. What did we want? We chose a small […]
~~~ Wednesday Evening, January 12 ~~~ If I want to get a sunset picture without the phone and electric wires at the end of our driveway, I walk by this view. I like the contrast between the sunset and leafless branches. Loved how this pretty sunset spread across the western sky with all the shades […]
~~~ Tuesday Evening, January 11 ~~~ I first noticed the sunset, then saw the large plume of smoke in the distance. I asked Cerwin what he thought it was. It looked controlled, so he surmised that it was coming from the emissions stack at Lancaster County Solid Waste Management Authority facility near Bainbridge. It is […]
~~~ Tuesday, January 11 ~~~ I love watching dripping icicles. For one thing it means the outside temperature is above freezing. By the breath of God ice is given, and the broad waters are frozen. Job 37:10 New King James Version
~~~ Monday, January 10 ~~~ It was a cold day, and when thinking that it would be a good day to cook or bake something, I thought, “This would be a good day to use the shellbark (hickory) nuts that John Rittenhouse gave us the previous week.” I find cold days are great for cooking […]
It has been a while since I saw a male cardinal at our feeders. I thought maybe there weren’t any in our woods this winter. Thus, I was delighted to see this spot of red through a window in the back of our house.
