A “Misty” Morning
What looks to be a pretty, misty morning is actually smoke laying in our valley. It is from a local composting facility that was on fire several weeks ago and is still smoking on some days. We can smell a smoky atmosphere some mornings, but in other areas of the valley the scent is not […]

Sometimes I Just Wonder
Early evening moon on Thursday, January 8, 2026 It was a 20-day old Waning Gibbous and 65% illuminated. Sometimes I look at the moon and wonder how God hung it in the sky. How does it stay there? Sometimes I just wonder – and believe it was as He said. Genesis 1:14-18 International Standard Version […]

Well, That Was an Interesting Few Days

New Year’s Day Lunch at Jere & Kristen’s House

A Snowy, Icy, Cold Morning
Sunday, December 28 It feels like it has been windy, icy, snowy, and cold for the past month. I am certainly glad for a nice warm house. These chairs have been vacant for several months. They will have to wait until warmer days. The patio looks nice – but slippery when covered with snow and […]
