Happy Birthday to Our Favorite Lydia
We love you! Grandpa and Grandma High
A Skunk was Eating the Birdseed
Wednesday, November 18 This is what I saw when I looked out our kitchen window at 4:30 am – after getting my first cup of coffee. Now I know why this basket and the stone turtle (next to skunks tail) are on the ground. They belong on the metal stool in the upper left. I […]
Cloudy Sunset
Thursday, November 12 Love a cloudy sunset!
Gracie’s on West Main with Jeff & Chris
Saturday Morning, November 21 We arrived early for our 2020 birthday breakfast with Jeff and Chris. This was for Chris’ birthday. I enjoyed the quotes on the blackboard behind our table. Gracie does the chalk writing and calligraphy on all the blackboards in her restaurant. There was another blackboard across the room from us. After […]
Beautiful Sunrise and Delicious Truffles
This was the sunrise I enjoyed several days ago. Doesn’t this look like a good place to sit and enjoy a truffle? That was my way of transitioning into a mistake I made in yesterday’s post. At one point today I thought, “It is time for another truffle.” It was then I realized that I […]
Our Thanksgiving Meal
Thursday, November 26 Jere and Kristen always invite us and Roy and Deb to their house for Thanksgiving. (Everyone else has other family plans.) However, this year COVID changed their plans so they delivered everything to our house. They came about 10:30 am so everything could be put in the oven or wherever needed for […]
Orange Sunset
Monday, November 9 So pretty!
Your Squirrel Education for the Day
The other day when I was outside to take some pictures, I noticed several squirrel nests high up in some of our trees. They are now visible since most of the leaves have fallen. I have only seen squirrel nests from this vantage point, so I went to the internet to learn more about squirrel […]
A Unique Sunrise
Monday, November 9 Because of the fog and clouds, the sun appeared to be coming up over a mountain.
Fox Meadows Creamery
Tuesday, November 17 We needed a box of vanilla ice cream and had a desire to get out of the house for lunch. My view from our table. We were delighted to learn that our granddaughter Jana was working in the kitchen. I told the young lady who took our order to tell Jana that […]
Pastel Sunrise
Sometimes I think, “How can every sunrise be different?”
Keeper of the Spring
Last Sunday Marv Shenk used this illustration in his sermon. I expect it is always a timely illustration, but I thought it worthy of sharing at a time when the world around us needs every Christian to be a “Keeper of the Spring”, so I copied the story from the internet. The late Peter Marshall, […]
Ouch! Mismatching Socks. Information on Bare Feet.
My usual warm day footwear is being barefooted, but it would have been good if I had been wearing shoes on the day I took a corner too short when doing laundry. 🙂 I learned something today when thinking, “If I could, I would probably go to restaurants and grocery stores with bare feet.” That […]
Why I Wear a Face Mask When Required
I wear a face mask when entering a place of business – more out of respect for the business than because it is a government requirement. Probably 100% of the businesses would prefer no masks, but it is required of them by the government – if they want to keep their doors open. The Wal-Marts […]
Dusty Sunset
One evening, about a week ago, I noticed that a neighboring farmer was creating an interesting sunset when working in his field. About that time another neighbor drove by with a load of hay bales. I don’t think he even saw me in our driveway – with camera in hand – because he was also […]
Today Would Have Been Daddy High’s 100th Birthday
It has been 20 years and nine months since we said goodbye to you. We miss you Daddy (Cerwin’s dad), but know you are enjoying your heavenly rest. A highlight of his life (other than the love of his family) was fishing in Canada. Daddy as a young man.
