Now that I finished our Maine trip posts, I will back up to the time my laptop motherboard died – with these pictures on it. I thought you would enjoy this beauty. I love hibiscus Another pretty fall flower. My flower ID ap says it is an Indian Blanket from the daisy and sunflower family. […]
Tuesday, October 28 and Wednesday, October 29 Tuesday morning – After Mark went to work – Diane took us on a local drive to see where some of the people live who attend the Wales Brethren Church We especially wanted to see where Jim and Melinda’s family live. They bought a large woodland property where […]
Tuesday, October 28 It was shortly after 8 am when Diane noticed a flock of wild turkey walking up the road next to their house. I took this picture of the entire flock through a window screen. By the time I got to a screenless window, most of the flock had gotten beyond our view. […]
Monday is one of the days that Mark has off during his weeklong schedule with driving truck for First Fleet. (Friday is the other day off.) Mark and Diane are both into making crafts and are getting ready for a craft show in a few weeks. I asked if I could take some “show and […]
I always enjoy seeing Mark and Diane’s hydrangea. This time it is in its fall colors. I like this new yard decoration. It is made with melted (heated), painted, vinyl records. ~~~ We enjoyed going to morning worship at Wales Brethren Church, Wales, Maine. After that it was fun to participate in their “Guess Who […]
Saturday, October 25 Traveling from Sanford, ME to Lisbon Falls, ME We had another beautiful drive to where Mark and Diane (our daughter) live. There was an accident on the interstate as we approached South Portland, so we decided to exit and look for a place for an early lunch. The accident was still being […]
Saturday, October 25 It was a beautiful morning as we drove from Vernon, Connecticut, to Sanford, Maine. I especially liked these two shots of the sun coming up between the trees with a bit of fog added. More pretty fall scenery Our goal for the morning was to stop at His, Yours and Mine shortly […]
Friday, October 24 For the first time in the 39 years that Mark and Diane have lived in Maine, we divided the 10-hour trip in half. Due to the pain in Cerwin’s hip – from arthritis – he thought 5 hours was a long enough drive, so we had motel reservations in Vernon, Connecticut. Because […]
The other day we were watching as the corn fodder in the field next to us was being shredded by a piece of farm equipment we had never seen. I zoomed in on it and saw the name Salford, so I googled, “What does a Salford corn stalk shredder do?” This was Google’s answer. A […]

We love you! Dad and Mom
If you read my post from yesterday, you know that we had a big party at our place on Sunday, October 12. We kept the two extension boards in our kitchen table for two more birthday celebrations later in the week. The above setting was for my sibling breakfast which was here on Saturday morning […]
Several weeks ago, our grandson Jordan asked if he could use our garage for a thirtieth birthday for his wife, Nicole. I love when our grandchildren are comfortable doing that because of our large garage. 🙂 Nicole, the celebrity of the day. She is the mother of our newest great grandchild, Haven Because there were […]
Friday, October 10 We usually go to the Manheim Farm Show at least once during the week-long event. This year it was just to get lunch on Friday. Farm Show recently built their own permanent French fry building. We chose to go on Friday because that was the day Jere and Kristen were overseeing the […]
The day after we returned from our friend’s mountain cabin, the corn harvest began next to our yard. In this harvest, you will notice that the corn stalks are still green, which means they are chopping the stalk and the corn together – making corn silage – which the cattle enjoy eating. Farmers mix this […]
