Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
~~~ Saturday, September 3 2:00 PM ~~~ It has been a long time since we attended a gospel concert and even longer since we were at American Music Theatre near Lancaster. I didn’t catch the name of the man who opened the afternoon with fabulous instrumentals. When a promoter (who knows us from TFC Truck […]
We noticed that Jacob put a fence around his alfalfa field in recent weeks, so figured his goats were going to be grazing near our property. They are usually closer to the barn and we only see them when we drive by their place. It’s not an easy view from our house, but if we […]
~~~ Saturday, September 3 ~~~ I heard the equipment about 11:24 AM on Saturday morning. From our kitchen window I took this picture just before we left (12:30 PM) for the afternoon. They were still working when we got home at 6:30 pm. We knew there were at least 3 deer who made this cornfield […]
~~~ Friday, September 2 ~~~ Everyone needs a brother-in-law and sister like we have – especially after you and they retire. đŸ™‚ I was nine and a half years old when my sister, Nancy, was born. That seems like a wide age gap. By the time she was ten I was married. By the time […]
There is something relaxing about an early September evening – when the air is cooler, and the sky begins to change. Especially the view from our kitchen window. We don’t see sunsets from our window during the summer rotation of the earth and sun, but by September we begin seeing colorful skies without having to […]
~~~ Friday, September 1 2:28 PM ~~~ Look at the “pond” today. It is cleaned out and beautifully landscaped. Three weeks ago (August 8) It looked like this. Filled with murky, algae water and deep muck on the bottom. Now we need rain so the spring will start flowing again.
~~~ Saturday Morning, August 27 10:00 AM Ephrata Community Church Connection Cafe ~~~ It was a beautiful place to hold a bridal shower. Make your own yogurt parfait. A variety of quiches. I chose vegetable (above). Visiting and enjoying the delicious brunch. Jana (granddaughter), Nichole (dating grandson Jordan) and Gloria (granddaughter and bride-to-be). Cousins. Jana […]
I am not sure what is going on with the Katydids in our woodlot. We haven’t seen any all summer, now they are greeting us each morning by hanging out on our house windows. We hear them at dusk each evening, so know they are here. Maybe they are laying eggs. These will die, but […]
~~~ Wednesday, August 24 2:00 PM ~~~ This was about a week ago, when I wanted to get a good shot of the barrels under the raft which my brothers built. For that reason, I walked toward the remains of the raft and one foot sank into the muck! I discovered that only the top […]
~~~ Tuesday Morning, August 23 ~~~ Drake, Jade and their mamma, Jenna. Jenna messaged me a few days earlier to check if they could come to visit us on Tuesday morning. The last time they were here – family photo shoot in June – Jade said she wanted to come back and play with our […]

Mark and Diane were here to celebrate his mother’s 90th birthday on August 14. When Diane learned that our congregations’ 250th anniversary was going to be celebrated the following weekend, she planned to stay for another week while Mark went back to Maine with their daughter Hannah. One of the extra benefits for Diane was […]
~~~ Sunday Afternoon, August 21 Final Entry of the Celebration ~~~ Four busses were waiting for those who signed up for the historical tour of the previous church buildings our congregation used to own. The bus drivers knew to leave about 10 minutes apart. I am going to mix some church history into this post […]
We love you! Daddy and Mother
~~~ Sunday Morning, August 21 ~~~ Our church doors opened at 8:00 AM for those who wanted to look at the displays which depicted our church life during the past 250 years, and many took advantage of that time. There was no Sunday School – except for the very youngest classes. Our PowerPoint committee members […]
~~~ Saturday Evening, August 20 Kreider Meetinghouse ~~~ For the second part of Saturday evening, we moved from White Oak Meetinghouse on Penryn Road to Kreider’s – our historical meetinghouse – for the remainder of the evening. The greeters were LaWanda and Kim from our committee. LaWanda was making sure everyone received a program and […]
