Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
~~~ Monday, July 5 ~~~ Her birthday gift from me. We had a great time visiting at City Star Diner in Manheim. I hadn’t thought about going there until a few weeks ago when Cerwin’s sister (Velda) said they make a good breakfast. They even give a 10% discount if you bring a church bulletin. […]
~~~ Sunday evening at Jere and Kristen’s place ~~~ These brand new flip flops make me smile. Kristen used them as a table decoration, but when Josh and Emily arrived, Emily was mortified, thinking Tucker had put her shoes on the table. 🙂 (Tucker had spent the previous week with “Papa and Mamma High”.) Imagine […]
~~~ Photos from earlier this spring – April & May ~~~ I just learned – from a friend – that Pennsylvania residents are encouraged to not feed birds and to remove feeders for a period of time. They are trying to do a study on why so many birds are dying. My first thought was, […]

~~~ Friday Evening, July 2 ~~~ A few views of an old tractor and car with the audience in the background. I noticed this sign when we walked into the yard to place our chairs in front of the wagon, but didn’t think too much about it. As I walked around looking for photo ops, […]
~~~ Friday Evening, July 2 ~~~ We were honored to be invited to Glenn and Phoebe’s place to hear The Werner Family Bluegrass Band. I loved their creative stage area. Cerwin enjoyed seeing the old tractors. Glenn told Cerwin that this was his dad’s first tractor. It originally had steel wheels. I told Cerwin to […]
~~~ Thursday, July 1 ~~~ Morning has broken like the first morningBlackbird has spoken like the first bird Praise for the singing, Praise for the morningPraise for them springing fresh from the world Sweet the rain’s new fall, sunlit from heavenLike the first dewfall on the first grass Praise for the sweetness of the wet […]
I took these pictures on a variety of days and in various kinds of lightings. All at our birdfeeders. Ladies luncheon Looks like he took her out for dinner.
~~~ Wednesday Evening, June 30 ~~~ The evening news had just gone off and a favorite game show was coming on TV when we noticed ominous-looking clouds overhead. When I looked above me, I noticed a patch of blue. Even the birds are getting out of the way of the rain. Before long we were […]
~~~ Saturday Afternoon, June 26 ~~ We enjoyed a fabulous afternoon of bluegrass, smiles and laughter. Raymond and Cerwin Cerwin and his brother, Elvin. I don’t remember this man’s name. He is a friend of Bryan. It was good to hear Cerwin and Elvin singing. It has been a long time. We get together fairly […]
~~~ Saturday, June 26 ~~~ We came upon this open Amish carriage as we traveled to Jakey and Crystal’s (our niece) house. They live about half hour from us. Crystal is the daughter of Cerwin’s brother, Elvin. We were surprised to see these wheat/or barley shocks (can’t quite tell). We don’t often see shocks in […]

When I got up shortly after 4:30 am, I was fascinated by the full moon shining in our kitchen windows. A moon like this compels me to go outside with my camera. The moon was even prettier one hour later as the sun was coming up in the east. The internet tells me this is […]
It has been fun to see our Red-headed Woodpeckers fairly often during the late spring and early summer. I googled this bird and learned a few fun facts about them. They are One of the most skillful flycatchers among the North American woodpecker species. One-third of their diet is insects and two-thirds is plant materials […]
~~~ Sunday, June 20 ~~~ It was a pleasant – leaning toward warm – afternoon to be enjoying lunch on Jere and Kristen’s deck. When Kristen was looking for something masculine for napkin rings, she noticed these small rolls of black electrical tape at the Dollar Store. How creative. Each person was encouraged to take […]
~~~ Sunday, June 20 ~~~ Early morning on Father’s Day. I love hazy, pastel mornings. Looking toward the farm. Earlier in the week Jere and Kristen asked if we were doing anything for Father’s Day lunch. We didn’t have plans and were delighted to enjoy a meal with their family. We went right after church, […]
