Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
~~~ Saturday Evening, September 13 ~~~ When looking for the closest Texas Roadhouse, we discovered there is a fairly new one in Ephrata – the closest one to us. We started with house salads. I had blue cheese dressing while Cerwin chose thousand island for his. Our kind waiter took our picture. He was fighting […]
~~~ Friday, Evening September 12 ~~~ The “Old Gang” began when we were a “Young Gang” – when most of us were dating. We have been getting together at least once a year since our children were babies. Now that most of us are in our late 70s and 80s, we are grateful for and […]
~~~ Thursday Evening, September 11 Shady Maple Banquet Center ~~~ Our friend, Lanny Millette, Director of Donor Relations, welcomed everyone to the banquet. Following a delicious meal, Christian Comedian Gordon Douglas, made us laugh until tears were running down our cheeks. He just naturally went from one story to another without stopping. He said he […]
~~~ Wednesday, September 10 ~~~ This is the first event for the fall and winter months which are being organized by the Ladies Fellowship Committee at White Oak Church. This is at an Amish farm in our neighborhood and where we go for flower arrangements. I love Lizzie’s flowers. The registration table was managed by […]
Each Sunday people from our congregation bring excess produce to church and place it on the tables in our fellowship hall which are designated for that purpose. This is usually done during the spring, summer and fall seasons. This week Cerwin and I chose six potatoes, two onions and a few handfuls of green beans. […]
I enjoyed watching this goldfinch pair for several minutes the other day. They are a welcome colorful bird during the summer months here in Pennsylvania.
~~~ Wednesday, September 3 ~~~ We enjoyed breakfast at Eagle Cafe, Quarryville, PA, to celebrate Deb’s birthday – which was last week. Since breakfast fits best into their schedule and we have more free time then they do, we usually meet them in a restaurant near their place. I am not a French toast kind […]
~~~ Tuesday, September 2 ~~~ It was a few weeks ago that we were invited to Kyle and Korina Wenger’s house for Sunday lunch. They are “our” deacons for the year and have committed to having each of their “responsibilities” for a meal during the year of 2025. It was fun visiting with them, their […]
I marvel that our hummingbirds never share a feeder with another hummingbird. We have visited areas of the United States where their feeders are full of hummingbirds. When at our kitchen sink, I noticed two hummingbirds fighting over the feeder. This one was the winner. Maybe it was female power. 🙂 I think we may […]
~~~ Friday Evening, August 29 ~~~ We had never been to this concert, but it seems to have been going on for several years – not always at the same location. This time we were in the backyard of the John Fox family near Denver, PA. Many people arrived early and enjoyed pulled pork sandwiches, […]
