Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
Friday, July 7 We had seen this advertisement in previous years when we were in Ohio for TFC’s Truck Rally, but always had other things to see. This year we decided to stop. One of the first things I noticed was goats on the roof of the barn – and wondered how they got there? […]
Friday Morning, July 7 We had just gotten on the road when Cerwin’s hearing aide beeped, so we went back to the motel. He forgot to bring extra batteries along in the car. We had rain during the night so it was a rather wet, but beautiful morning. While Cerwin went back to our room […]
Thursday, July 6 We had a relaxing, uneventful drive from our house to Berlin, Ohio – with the exception of some rain between 9:30 and 10:45 am. It was a good day to begin a novel that I had downloaded onto my Nook – probably two years ago. It has been a long time since […]
Tuesday Evening, July 4 Jere and Kristen made a delicious supper for us and Josiah – a thank you gift for helping with the chicken barn and fence. Josiah and Jesse playing with Jesse’s new baseball game. Jere started the fireworks before it was very dark – because he was tired from the many days […]
Tuesday Morning, July 4 Josh and Anthony looking at the new chicks. Abby asked if I could take care of Anthony for a few hours during the morning, so we went over to Jere and Kristen’s to see how the post hole digging was going. (For their chicken fence.) Jere, Josiah, and Cerwin The post […]
Monday, July 3 First thing was taking a picture of Josiah and Josh. Since both have similar haircuts and beards, we thought they really look like cousins. Josiah was with us for a few days before beginning a trucking job out of North Dakota. Birthday supper. These three had their own table. My favorite part of […]
This is where we concluded our day – after Conowingo Dam and the Italian lunch. We were in Hartford County – Jarrettsville, Maryland. We arrived here about 3:00 pm, so only toured the gristmill. There were several other buildings. This mill was built by John Stump III about 1800. There are four stories. Mr. Stump […]
Our Mother’s & Father’s Day continued… Roy loves to find unique restaurants as gifts for us – like birthdays and Mother’s or Father’s Day. They had eaten here and thought it a perfect place to take us – after bird-watching at Conowingo Dam. The menu is Italian. The olive oil that we used for dipping our […]
July 2 This day was our Mother’s Day & Father’s Day Gift from Roy & Deb. They know how much I enjoy bird-watching, so they planned a morning of looking for eagles and other wildlife at Conowingo Dam – not far from their house. They live in Amish Country – about an hour south of […]
Friday, June 30 and Saturday, July 1 It was a week after our Truck Rally and I was getting caught up on Rally reports for the International Office. Somehow the rain was good therapy for my body, soul, and spirit – following a busy and fun series of weeks. Several weeks ago our grandson Ian […]
We love you, Grandpa & Grandma High

Jon and Keri Cassel and their family are on the left. (left to right) Emma, Jon, Aubrey, Austin, Keri and Ethan. They chose Tyson and Adrienne Snyder as the family […]
Sunday, June 25 Susie and Sam – Sunday morning welcoming committee. 🙂 They stayed at our house overnight. The Perrys provided the worship service between 10:30 and 11:30 am for about 200 people. Following the worship service we went outside for the new chapel dedication. Cerwin opened with a few comments on how this chapel […]
We love you! Daddy & Mother High
June 24, 2017 – Continued Trucks returning from the parade of trucks. I understand that this is a new trailer. I commend the owner on the choice of lettering. Effects of the early morning rain created a splash and play area. 🙂 The 171 trucks are all back on the grounds of Lebanon Expo. The […]
