Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
~~~ Wednesday, July 7 ~~~ Yes, the owners of this place (Sam and Betty High) are related to us. Sam is Cerwin’s uncle – the youngest brother of Cerwin’s dad. I took advantage of Tucker being in our area to take her, Jesse and Anthony on a miniature golf outing. This was what Jesse wanted […]
I usually take pictures of birds and keep them in a file until I am ready to feature them. These pictures were taken earlier this spring. Even though they can be pushy at feeders and chase other birds away, they are fun to watch. From the Internet: Blue Jays are some of the most recognized […]
~~~ Tuesday, July 6 ~~~ I was pleased that it suited each of our Pennsylvania great-grandchildren to go swimming on Tuesday. This was their 2021 birthday gift from us. Above you can see Jenna and Jade, Jasmine and Abby and Bennett and Diana. (Jenna, Abby and Diana are granddaughters.) Anthony (his mom is Abby) Tucker […]
~~~ Tuesday Morning, July 6 ~~~ 6:30 AM. We heard them before we saw them – equipment that was oil and chipping our road. You will notice how tall the corn is getting in the fields that surround our house. Most of the vehicles belonged to Martin Paving (below) – there were a few Penn […]
We love you! Grandpa and Grandma High
~~~ Monday, July 5 ~~~ Her birthday gift from me. We had a great time visiting at City Star Diner in Manheim. I hadn’t thought about going there until a few weeks ago when Cerwin’s sister (Velda) said they make a good breakfast. They even give a 10% discount if you bring a church bulletin. […]
~~~ Sunday evening at Jere and Kristen’s place ~~~ These brand new flip flops make me smile. Kristen used them as a table decoration, but when Josh and Emily arrived, Emily was mortified, thinking Tucker had put her shoes on the table. 🙂 (Tucker had spent the previous week with “Papa and Mamma High”.) Imagine […]
~~~ Photos from earlier this spring – April & May ~~~ I just learned – from a friend – that Pennsylvania residents are encouraged to not feed birds and to remove feeders for a period of time. They are trying to do a study on why so many birds are dying. My first thought was, […]

~~~ Friday Evening, July 2 ~~~ A few views of an old tractor and car with the audience in the background. I noticed this sign when we walked into the yard to place our chairs in front of the wagon, but didn’t think too much about it. As I walked around looking for photo ops, […]
~~~ Friday Evening, July 2 ~~~ We were honored to be invited to Glenn and Phoebe’s place to hear The Werner Family Bluegrass Band. I loved their creative stage area. Cerwin enjoyed seeing the old tractors. Glenn told Cerwin that this was his dad’s first tractor. It originally had steel wheels. I told Cerwin to […]
~~~ Thursday, July 1 ~~~ Morning has broken like the first morningBlackbird has spoken like the first bird Praise for the singing, Praise for the morningPraise for them springing fresh from the world Sweet the rain’s new fall, sunlit from heavenLike the first dewfall on the first grass Praise for the sweetness of the wet […]
I took these pictures on a variety of days and in various kinds of lightings. All at our birdfeeders. Ladies luncheon Looks like he took her out for dinner.
~~~ Wednesday Evening, June 30 ~~~ The evening news had just gone off and a favorite game show was coming on TV when we noticed ominous-looking clouds overhead. When I looked above me, I noticed a patch of blue. Even the birds are getting out of the way of the rain. Before long we were […]
~~~ Saturday Afternoon, June 26 ~~ We enjoyed a fabulous afternoon of bluegrass, smiles and laughter. Raymond and Cerwin Cerwin and his brother, Elvin. I don’t remember this man’s name. He is a friend of Bryan. It was good to hear Cerwin and Elvin singing. It has been a long time. We get together fairly […]
~~~ Saturday, June 26 ~~~ We came upon this open Amish carriage as we traveled to Jakey and Crystal’s (our niece) house. They live about half hour from us. Crystal is the daughter of Cerwin’s brother, Elvin. We were surprised to see these wheat/or barley shocks (can’t quite tell). We don’t often see shocks in […]
