Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
These are a short-lived flower. If I miss getting photos when they are blooming, I don’t get a second chance. The scientific name for the bleeding heart plant is Lamprocapnos spectabilis. I think I will stick with bleeding heart. It’s easier to pronounce. 🙂 The flowers are rather fragile and hang in rows on arching […]
~~~ Photos from Tuesday, May 11 and Thursday, May 13 ~~~ Our view of the homestead changed this week when the 60-year-old-silo was taken down. Franklin Silo Repair had a lot of prep work to do on Tuesday. Notice the dust coming out of the top of the silo. That is about all I saw […]
~~~ Sunday Evening, May 9 ~~~ We were just a mile from home when two large birds flew away from eating roadkill. I called our son Jere and said, “There are eagles on the road in front of your house.” We are used to seeing turkey buzzards, but were surprised to see bald eagles. We […]
We love you! Grandpa and Grandma High.
~~~ Mother’s Day ~~~ Part of me feels bad that our children and grandchildren think they need to get me something for Mother’s Day, but the other part of me enjoys it. 🙂 There were promises of a “meal out” and “we need to do something together in the near future.” A rose from church […]
~~~ Photos taken on Sunday, May 9 ~~~ When we arrived at their house, I noticed five pretty pots of flowers on the deck table. My first thought was that each of their five children gave Chris flowers for Mother’s Day, then because they were similar, I thought maybe they were gifts for their married […]
~~~ Tuesday, April 20 ~~~ The neighborhood farmers were busy cutting rye on a cool, sunny day. ~~~ The Next Day, Wednesday, April 21 ~~~ Neighbors A broad view of the three fields from our yard – left, center, right ~~~ Thursday, April 22 ~~~ Tedding the rye (stirring it up) so it dries better. […]

These birds are not the most colorful of birds that come to our feeders, but I enjoy them nonetheless. Brown-headed cowbirds Mourning Doves seem so peaceful and laidback.
Mother’s Day 2021 – With Love to Our Four Children
~~~ Photos taken April 13, 17, 20 & 28 ~~~ Our redbud tree is finally making a “pretty show” this year. It took a few years. We planted it in 2016 in memory of Cerwin’s mom. We must have received a gift of a few purple tulips bulbs. It was nice to discover this color […]
~~~ Photos taken Wednesday Morning, April 14 ~~~ As I was enjoying coffee and watching the morning news, the yellow/orange coming through our living room solar shades grabbed my attention. In spring through fall I have to look out a back bedroom window to see the sunrise. Oh, wow! It was beautiful. God amazes me […]

~~~ Photos taken Tuesday, April 27 ~~~ We enjoyed breakfast in the motel where we met a couple from York County, PA, who knew a few of our friends. They were heading to The Ark and Creation Museum. We got to the West Virginia border about hour after leaving the motel. It was a beautiful […]
~~~ Monday, April 26 ~~~ I took the first two pictures shortly after leaving the wedding venue (about 7 AM Central Time) as we headed east on I-40 on a hazy Monday morning. Each of our family members left shortly after us. Mark, Diane and Hannah took Heze and Kayla to the Nashville Airport where […]
~~~ Photos taken Sunday, April 25 ~~~ Because we stayed for the posed photos following the ceremony, we were some of the last ones to go through the reception buffet. Cerwin and Diane (Heze’s mom) Pulled pork (above) and pulled chicken (below) for sandwiches. There was a variety of barbecue sauces to go with it. […]

Replay of the same routine Wedding Party The guys Guys will be guys. The girls […]
~~~ Photos taken Sunday, April 25 ~~~ For me, the first thing of the day was to enjoy coffee in the dining room – cup on the counter between the dining room and kitchen. I enjoyed reading the many signs and quotes in the house. We enjoyed our own “church service” by listening to most […]
