~~~ Tuesday, November 29 12:37 pm to 4:10 pm ~~~ This was about the time I heard the machinery that was harvesting the corn. By the end of the day we had a view of all the homestead buildings.

Goodnight Moon
The other night I went outside to say goodnight to the world before going to bed. This is what I saw. I went back inside for my camera so I could capture this beauty. A waxing crescent with a bit of haze. I changed my camera settings to see which photo I liked best. I […]
Late Fall Contrasts
Late fall and winter days are often a variety of contrasts in colors – sometimes it seems to be cold with only black and whites – other times there are beautiful sunrises and sunsets. The other day, following the funeral for Cerwin’s cousin Ruth, we continued on to Roy and Deb’s house to deliver a […]

A Very Thin Waxing Crescent Moon Captured My Attention
~~~ Friday Night, November 25 ~~~ When I prepared this for posting I noticed a helicopter on the right. It was probably either Life Lion from Hershey Medical or one from Indiantown Gap doing a night flight. At first I thought it was an airplane, but when I zoomed in, I noticed the shape of […]

Suet Was the Birds Choice

Our Thanksgiving Day
~~~ Thursday, November 24 ~~~ We were blessed to be part of our congregation’s Thanksgiving Day service where 33 people gave testimony of God’s goodness and faithfulness to them in 2022. Microphones are placed on stands at two parts of the sanctuary to make it easy for anyone to give a testimony. THere was also […]
Sunset and Tree Contrast
I love to see the contrast between sunsets and bare tree branches. These closeups are from our crepe myrtle bush.
With Leaves Gone, I Can Now See Nests
~~~ Wednesday, November 23 ~~~ As far as I can tell, there are two squirrel nests on our property, with many more in the woodlot behind us. This one is toward the back of our lot. This one is in the front yard – in a tree close to the road. This nest could fit […]
On the Road by Our House
~~~ Tuesday, November 22 ~~~ I can hear a few of you asking, “So what’s the big deal about a garbage truck stopped at your driveway?” It is a big deal to me as we only began having garbage pickup this past summer. It is part of us trying to eliminate extra work from our […]
Morning Sunshine – A Sweet Friend – Geese Overhead
~~~ Friday, November 18 ~~~ I love looking out one of our southeastern windows and seeing the morning sunshine on our decorative grass. Ian messaged me a day earlier to ask if he could bring his friend Ryleigh to meet us. We knew about this friendship and were anxious to meet her. It was fun […]
Birthday Dinner at The Mill in Hershey
~~~ Thursday Evening, November 17 ~~~ This birthday group (Jordan, Nicole, Zach and Gloria) chose The Mill for their 2022 birthday dinner. Cerwin and I arrived early and were seated at our reserved table in the basement. I like unusual mixes of fruit juices, so the Cran-Pear Cooler got my attention. It included cranberry juice, […]
Sweet Visitors
~~~ Thursday, November 17 Jenna, Jade and Drake ~~~ Our granddaughter Jenna messaged me earlier in the week, asking if there was a day that suited us for her to bring the children and visit a bit. We settled on Thursday morning. She came bearing gifts. Items that she makes so people can purchase them […]
