Happy 104th Birthday to My Mom in Heaven
I post this with great memories of a kind and thoughtful mother. It is a landmark birthday for us. She died at the age of 52, which means it has been 52 years since we saw her. Mom – Florence Hawthorne – at her high school graduation. Circa 1940 Mom (now Florence Hershey) on January […]
Our Version of Sunday’s Snowstorm
January 25 We woke up to several inches of snow. After daylight I took a few photos of our view of the scenery in front of us. A snowplow went by shortly after 9 am. By 9:30 we had 5-6 inches of snow. Male cardinals always look pretty in the snow. By the time we […]
High Family Winter Get-Together
Saturday Lunch, January 24 It was about 12:15 pm when everything was ready for our buffet lunch. The hot things were in the kitchen area in the upper center: pulled pork, mac and cheese, gourmet potatoes, and green bean casserole – then salads and relishes followed by salty snacks, delicious desserts, and drinks. Eric, Megan […]
Midwinter Music Night
Friday Evening, January 23 – New Covenant Fellowship, New Holland, PA We enjoyed a great night of music in the church gym. First was Gracie Martin – a little girl with a big voice. I think she is 9 or 10 years old. This time her dad (behind her) joined her band. Everyone enjoys when […]

Sunday’s Snow was a Repeat of Saturday’s
January 18 The Junco’s looked pretty in our small snow-covered weeping redbud tree. Jere and Jesse came back to open our driveway. Due to the morning snow of about 3-4 inches, Sunday School was cancelled. The worship service was on schedule for those who could get there. The snowplow only opened our road about the […]
I Love a Beautiful Snowfall
Saturday, January 17 We were expecting to see snow on Saturday morning and were not disappointed. It was nice to have more than a frosting this time. By the time it was finished it appeared that we had three+ inches. Our children don’t like Cerwin to be doing this job, so Jere and Jesse shoveled […]
A Junco Enjoying Suet
Because it has been windy during the past week (or more), I put suet out instead of birdseed. I don’t like to see the birdseed blow away.
Sunrise, Rain, and Working at Blessings of Hope
Wednesday Morning, January 14 I went outside to get a few sunrise pictures before getting dressed for the day. As I stood on our porch taking pictures, I was surprised to feel raindrops. It seemed like we should be seeing a rainbow, but that didn’t happen. This was a day we signed up to volunteer […]
