I enjoyed watching this butterfly which appears to be a great spangled fritillary. I am not familiar with those, but photos on the internet appear to be the same. It was interesting to see the difference between the top and bottom of its wings. ~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~

What fun to enjoy a meal with Jesse for his 17th birthday. Two Cousins Restaurant is our choice for birthday meals this year. They can choose anything from the menu. Cerwin chose a cheesesteak, I enjoyed a slice of pizza and onion rings, and Jesse had a ham and cheese stromboli. I love the one-on-one […]
We came upon this family as we drove to our own worship services on Sunday morning. This time their church service was in a home on a hillside just to the east of our road. We came home a different way so I could capture a photo from another angle. By this time some were […]
I still have some springtime photos in my file that haven’t been posted. Our Redbud tree had beautiful blooms this spring. I love when the ferns are young and the periwinkles are just about the same shade of fresh new green. ~~~ Something to Ponder ~~~
We love you! Grandpa and Grandpa High
When Cerwin asked me a few days earlier if I wanted to go for a drive and get lunch on July 4th, you know I was on board as I envisioned a few back roads. I suggested going to Plum Creek for an early lunch. It has been a while since we were there. It […]

Our hummingbirds were late in coming to the feeders this year, but now we are seeing them every day – many times a day. It is especially fun to see them using the feeder we bought at the Philadelphia Flower Show in March. It was interesting to look over these pictures and notice that each […]

~~~ Tuesday, June 25 ~~~ We saw this event on Facebook events and thought it would be a fun thing to do during a week that wasn’t very busy for us. Flinchbaugh’s Orchard & Farm Market is near Hellam, PA – about 45 minutes from our house. The Clydesdales were under this large tent. The […]
~~~ Sunday, June 23 ~~~ Each year we have a good spread of food when our extended family gets together at our niece (Amy) and her husband’s (Kevin) place. Every household brings food items they chose from a meal organizer website. It was a warm day as we met in the old airplane hangar but […]
We’ve had this burgundy birdbath for many years and had no intention of changing it. But woke up to this scene a few days ago. Apparently, a raccoon tried to get a drink during the night – and I don’t blame it because we had a series of very hot days. It was probably using […]
~~~ Monday, July 1 ~~~ Yesterday we went to West Nottingham Cemetery, Colora, Maryland, to say goodbye to our friend Betty Boyle. The entire service was held at her burial site. We appreciated spending a bit of time with her children, Kathy and Ken and a few grandchildren. It was especially meaningful to listen to […]
~~~ Sunday, June 23 ~~~ This time Amish church was at a home on our road. As far as I know they are the only Amish family who lives on our one-and-a-half-mile road. I took these pictures very quickly as we were driving to a family picnic. The house is on the corner of two […]
