Brethren Disaster Relief Auction – Quilt
~~~ Friday, September 24 ~~~ So pretty
Brethren Disaster Relief Auction
~~~ Friday, September 24 ~~~ It is a bit difficult to photograph the entrance billboard at Lebanon Expo, because it is continually moving. I love walking by the area where the Amish are making donuts. The scent is amazing, making it difficult to walk by on the way to the heifer auction and postpone a […]

Fun with Anthony and Jasmine
Wednesday, September 22 We look forward to days when Abby (granddaughter) needs a sitter for Anthony and Jasmine for a few hours. We don’t have them real often, so our toys are interesting to them. At this point Abby usually takes baby Natalie with her. Because Anthony had some homeschool work to do, I did […]
Corn Is Soon Ready for Harvest
This is the cornfield below our yard. The cattle and other animals will appreciate this during the winter months. This is a sure sign of Fall in our area.
Church Fellowship Meal
Sunday Evening, September 19 We used to hold this in our church parking lot and had a few good weather years, then it rained one year and we went to Lititz Area Mennonite School and used the gym. That was so well liked that we kept going there, because it was warm and dry when […]

Wild Pork
You may remember this photograph from Cerwin, Jere and Ian’s wild hog hunt in early September. This is the sow that Cerwin shot. This is the meat that was cut and frozen by Bur-Pak (Myerstown, PA). We got hams, smoked pork chops, ground sausage, ground sausage in links, and loin. We wanted to weigh these […]

Bugs and Birds
This post is from a variety of shots I took in the past few months. The other week I saw this interesting pattern of bugs on the window screen of our bedroom. I went outside to see what they looked like from that view. I think they must be related to stink bugs. A pretty […]
Visiting Uncle John ~ 105 Years Old
Cerwin’s sister Doris emailed us on September 15 (which would have been Mother High’s 104th birthday) to ask if we would consider calling her brother John, in Mother’s honor. Mother and John were only 18 months apart in age and have always been good friends – especially in Mother’s later years when they both lived […]
September Mushrooms
The weather and temperatures in September must have been just right for growing mushrooms, because we had a nice variety of them in our yard. This one looks like it grew into a tight bit of grass because of the area where growth was hindered. When I first noticed this one it was fairly large… […]
Agape Restaurant with Friends
~~~ Wednesday, September 15 ~~~ We arrived at Agape just before 1:00 pm. I had called ahead, but we were warned that it was a busy day and we may have to wait awhile. Some of us walked through the pretty gift shop. I love this quote: “Let your story become your song and sing […]
