What a Fabulous Way to Say, “Good Morning, God.”
~~~ Wednesday Morning, December 1 ~~~ I think God knows we need pretty sunrises now and then. The sky lightened as I moved my camera to the southeast. It lightened even more as I faced south. A pretty sunrise and cold morning air certainly has my brain alert and alive.
Amish Manure Spreader
~~~ Monday, November 29 ~~~ We had gone to Roy and Deb’s (one hour south of us) to help with some changes they are making in the property in preparation for his mom to live in a large travel trailer on their property. On the way home we saw this scene. I am not sure […]
When the Evening Sky is Orange
~~~ Sunday Evening, November 28 ~~~ My first view of the setting sun was from behind our pear tree. I went outside and walked around the tree to get a view of it unhindered by branches and leaves. I liked this view as well – from behind another tree where this angle gave me a […]
The Changing of Two Trees
I thought it would be fun to take pictures of the same two trees as they went through the metamorphosis of the Fall season. October 24. These two trees tower over our front yard near the road. The one closest to the field was beginning to change colors first. October 28 November 1 November 6. […]
Birthday Lunch
~~~ Sunday, November 28 ~~~ Donovan (with a sleeping Bennett), Diana, Gloria, Zach, Cerwin, Chris and Jeff We were celebrating the birthdays of Diana, Gloria, Zach, Chris and Jeff.

I Commend You to the Care of God
Because You love each one more than I do, I can bring them to You with great joy, knowing without a doubt that You are working in each life, especially in things that concern me, like health or spiritual carelessness.
Oh, Wow! Oh, Wow!
As you know, I rarely post anything the same day I take a picture, but I just had to post tonight’s sunset! I keep reading and hearing about how important it to take time to rest and enjoy the beauty around us as we get involved in the busyness of Christmas. When I looked out […]
First Snow of the Season was Just a Sprinkling
~~~ Sunday Morning, November 28 ~~~ It looked like there was a sprinkling of sugar over everything. A Junco was looking for a stray black oil sunflower seed. There was a flock of mourning doves in the tree outside our living room window.

Hairy Woodpecker
It is nice to see a Hairy Woodpecker now and then. We see Downy Woodpeckers almost every day this time of year, but it is a bit rare to see the larger Hairy – even though they look alike.

Thanksgiving
~~~ Thursday, November 25 ~~~ We woke up to a frosty, cold, beautiful morning – making it feel like a Thanksgiving Day. We talked about the beauty and frost as we went to Thanksgiving Day service at church. Our Thanksgiving Day service is a highlight of our church’s year because it’s a morning when our […]
Lunch with Sam
~~~ Wednesday, November 23 ~~~ One of the first things I usually do when we arrive at Sam Rittenhouse’s house is to see what is going on in his orchard and yard. Our purpose for going was for Cerwin to help Sam with the small propane heater he uses to keep his greenhouse warm during […]
A Delightful Evening with Gene and Rose
~~~ Tuesday Evening, November 23 ~~~ We had a great evening catching up on each other’s lives. When it was getting close to closing time we asked a restaurant worker, “At what point will we realize that it is time for us to leave?” She said, “When I hand you the sweeper and ask you […]
