Sarah Mae and Her Kinfolk
Sam, Inge, Cerwin and I thoroughly enjoyed this play which was written by Gail Blanton and held at Lampeter Church of the Brethren, near Willow Street. Our connection to The Promise Players presentations is Sam’s daughter Debbie and son-in-law Lanny who are involved in its production in a variety of ways. I posted a lot […]
1973 Crocus, Rain Drops and Something to Ponder
My mom gave us 10 crocus bulbs to help celebrate our 10th Wedding Anniversary. This is one of those. They mean more to me than most of the flowers on our property because she died suddenly about the time they bloomed for the first time in the spring of 1974. These rain drops looked pretty […]
Supper with Friends
~~~ Wednesday Evening, March 13 ~~~ Because Nelson and Nancy live near Myerstown and we live near Manheim, we chose the Palmyra Texas Roadhouse – about the same distance for both of us. This meal was a birthday gift to Nelson for his 2023 birthday. It was time to get together, because he will soon […]

A Weeping Pussy Willow Tree in Memory of Hannah
We have been thinking about a new, unique tree that would fit into our woodlot, in memory of our granddaughter Hannah – who died suddenly on July 4, 2023, from a blood clot. We were discussing a location for a pussy willow bush, until yesterday when we stopped at Esbenshade’s Garden Center and discovered a […]

Philadelphia Flower Show – Part 2
~~~ Tuesday, March 5 The Flower Displays ~~~ Get ready to walk through the flower show with 95 photos taken through my lens. This was the main attraction – close to the entrance. It was difficult to walk away from this display without taking even more pictures. This seemed like a great place to take […]
Philadelphia Flower Show – Part 1
~~~ Tuesday, March 5 ~~~ In Part 1 of the Flower Show, I will give some details about the show and our day. In my next entry I will post a lot of beautiful flower pictures. When thinking about vacations and trips for 2024, we decided to go with bus trips. Cerwin doesn’t enjoy driving […]

Donovan’s Birthday Lunch
~~~ Sunday, March 3 ~~~ What fun to have Donovan and Diana’s family here for a Two Cousins lunch – to celebrate Donovan’s February birthday. Diana and the boys shared a Cheese Pizza while Donovan enjoyed a Buffalo Chicken Cheesesteak and Cerwin and I shared a Cheese Steak. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the boys play […]
Ladies’ Fellowship Brunch
~~~ Saturday Morning, March 2 ~~~ This is one of my favorite days of the year because the carport entrance and fellowship hall at our church are beautifully decorated, the food is amazing, and the fellowship and speaker is always the best. A place for donations (there is no charge for the morning) and a […]
Backroad Scenes and Something to Ponder
It was a day in late February when we took some backroads and slightly unfamiliar roads – just for fun, to visit friends who are rebuilding from a barn fire and enjoy lunch with a gift card. After lunch, we got between this group of riders at a traffic light, so slowed down to allow […]
