Monday, January 25 This is what the morning sun looked like on the icicles hanging from the edge of our house roof – two days after the snow in late January. Shadows on the snow. Traffic was moving again, but schools were still closed. The icicles looked white and cold at noon. Cerwin asked the boys to […]
Sunday, January 24 Enjoy the scenes from the day after our big snow – more than two weeks ago. A view outside our dining area window. Our crepe myrtle bush – deep in the snow. I brought the tray to the surface once again, added some black oil sunflower seed and a suet block. A junco […]
This morning we sang a song in church that I have not heard in a long time. It took me back many years – to August 1968 – when it was sung at my Grandpa Hawthorne’s funeral. (He is my mother’s father.) It was mentioned as one of his favorite songs. That is when the song Ivory Palaces also […]
Saturday, January 23 I opened a garage door to see the back yard – facing east. Another garage door – facing north. Looking out a front window – facing south. The birds are standing around a tray of birdseed – on a bush – already covered with snow. A snowdrift sliding off our roof. The large tree […]
Saturday, January 23 Enjoy the snow I have more snow pictures for another day. 🙂
Mother has gone through several ups and downs since her hospital visit in early January. Her “trouble spot” right now is her toes where she has severe pain due to lack of circulation. That is happening because she can no longer walk. The nurses and caregivers at Landis Homes are doing a fabulous job of […]
The hospital staff withheld her breakfast just in case they had to do the scope procedure. However, her blood work and counts are looking good, so they brought her food. 🙂 Cerwin and I will be spending the afternoon with her, so I will update you later today or tonight when we have new information. […]
Thursday, December 10 I like how the camera captured the sun. It almost looks like a cross. A few hours later the sun was hidden by clouds and fog. Each morning has a color of its own.
We love you, Grandpa & Grandma
Wednesday, November 18 I love that our friends who like to cook and bake, sometimes bestow a tasty delight on us. Look at that! There were two of these. However, I didn’t remember to take a picture until one was eaten. Hot with milk – oh, yum. Thanks, Glenn and Rachel.
Internet will be sporatic for the next 8 days, so my posting will be sporatic. 🙂
Thursday Afternoon, August 20 After a very dry, almost rain-free July and August, we were glad to hear that this was supposed to be a very rainy day. By 3:30 PM we were enjoying a downpour. By 5:00 PM our yard looked like a small river. When our rain gauge filled at five inches, Cerwin […]
Monday Afternoon, July 13 After leaving Great-grandma Hershey’s house, we went to Landis Homes to see Great-grandma High. Heading toward her room. We took Great-grandma for a walk to see the ducks, swans, and peafowl. There was a visitor to the pond – a great blue heron. I was pleased that it did not seem […]
Wednesday, June 17 Love a beautiful, summer morning.
Beauty in our yard and the fields surrounding us. Begonia Corn Crown Vetch Honeysuckle I don’t know what this is, but thought it was pretty. The mulberry bush is so heavy with berries that this branch is on the ground. Fern Mint tea Crepe myrtle, daisies, and day lilies The day lilies are at their […]
