~~~ Friday Evening, July 30 ~~~ Cerwin and I were looking forward to having supper at Japheth and Aimee’s house. It was built since we were in Minnesota in 2015. We had seen pictures, but there is nothing quite like being there. In this photo, Alisha (Jon’s daughter), Jon (Japheth’s brother), Aimee and Loraine. Jon’s […]
~~~ Friday, July 30 ~~~ The guys – Bob, Cerwin and Dietrich (Bob and Doris’ grandson) – set up their stand at Scenic Store in “downtown” Pennington. The store is the town. 🙂 There are a few surrounding houses, but not close together. Doris said the “town” includes 52 people. Scenic Store is a local […]

~~~ Thursday, July 29 ~~~ We were up early and helping Bob and Doris set up at the Walker Farmer’s Market. My photo tells me that it was 7:17 AM when I took this picture. There was a group of Canada Geese across the street that grabbed my attention. The one second from left looked […]

~~~ Wednesday, July 28 – Woodbury, MN to Pennington, MN ~~~ It was raining heavily when we left our motel in Woodbury. However, before long the skies were bright and blue again. Minnesota, the land of 10,000 Lakes. The internet tells me there are more than 12,000 lakes throughout the state. As you get toward […]
~~~ Tuesday, July 27 – South Bend IN to Woodbury, MN ~~~ We got up early enough to say goodbye to Josiah – who left about half an hour before us. We didn’t see him again because he was headed for the city and we were going around it. It was a pretty morning in […]
~~~ Monday, July 26 ~~~ On Sunday evening, as we were preparing suitcases and other things for leaving the next day, I noticed a beautiful evening sky and went outside to capture some pictures. It was the pretty sunset in the west that enhanced the eastern sky in the first three pictures. After a good […]
~~~ I am posting a variety of pictures I took a few days before we left on a road trip. ~~~ Our shellbark and hickory trees are producing many nuts that should feed our squirrels for the winter. We always have trouble identifying which is which because both seem to be a different variety of […]
~~~ Monday, July 19 ~~~ About this time every year – when the daisies are finished blooming – Cerwin uses our hedge trimer to cut the daisies, daylilies and Hosta down to just an inch or two above ground level. We learned to do this several years ago, then in about two or three weeks, […]
One day last week I walked around our yard looking for something pretty. Most of the flowers are beyond pretty or are not yet blooming, so I focused on the green plants. Some yellow also showed up. 🙂 There were also shades of blue. Colorful flowers are pretty, but so is green.
~~~ Wednesday Evening, July 21 ~~~ This was our second trip to Hershey last week. We drove through a downpour, then saw a beautiful double rainbow as we approached the restaurant. The Hershey Kiss light posts are a good indication that we are in Hershey. This time we were eating out with Glendon and Denise […]
~~~ Wednesday, July 21 ~~~ It is not unusual to follow a horse and buggy on the way to Yoder’s in New Holland. The color tells me there is a Mennonite family inside. Amish buggies are a dark gray, not black. Sam was the first to get his meal because he and Barb went to […]
I found it interesting that three people brought us a pie or slices of pie this week. Guess who is the happiest about this – my sweet-tooth husband. 🙂 Sunday afternoon our daughter-in-law Chris brought us a pecan pie she bought at the Haiti Benefit Auction the day before. The next day my sister Nancy […]
