Saturday, July 22 Chaplain Jake rented a golf cart and gave us a ride. That was a nice way to see the trucks – especially those that were far away from the chapel. I had opportunity to take pictures when Jake and Cerwin stopped to talk to drivers. Back at the chapel. The gate attendants […]
Saturday, July 22 – 5th Annual Keystone Diesel Nationals These two visited the chapel shortly after we opened the door – before I had the inside of the chapel set up. The driver brought his neighbor boy to the show – who dreams of being a trucker. It always looks “setup”, but we put the literature […]
Thursday, July 20 This was the week that Jesse was with us – while Ian and Jared were in Wyoming. Jesse liked the idea of making supper for his parents and Josh – Jana was working. Our first project was making a Jell-O and ice cream dessert. He chose orange Jell-O. A few hours later […]
Thursday, July 20 This time the trees were in Anne’s yard – in the woodlot behind our house and the pavilion. A few days earlier a large branch fell on the back of the house and ruined her heating/cooling unit. Another branch went through the roof and into her bathroom. For that reason the carpenter […]

Tuesday, July 18 Following our ride on the dinner car, we checked the children’s activities. Anthony and Abigail went on this ride. Jesse was on a cranky car, so waited for a later ride on the pint-sized pufferbelly. This ride is powered by hands and arms. If there is nobody in line, children can go […]
Tuesday, July 18 An engineer bringing a train into the station Waiting for our train. Abby, Anthony, and Jesse. We and Abby chose Strasburg Railroad for Anthony’s birthday because of his love of trains. Jesse got to go along because he was at our house. Also, he and Anthony are good friends. They loved that […]

Monday, July 17 I wish I knew mushrooms – if they are edible or not. These two were beautiful. Because I haven’t studied them, I only eat mushroom from a store.
Sunday, July 16 The first thing we did – after prayer – was sing to the birthday girls – Kylee & Heidi. Both birthdays were on the day of the reunion – Kylee is now two and Heidi is 8. The cousins are granddaughters of my sister, Nancy, and her husband, Marlin. There was lots […]

July 12 The scene as we arrived at church on the Wednesday evening of Bible school. I took a few more pictures in the hallways – that I missed the night before. Pictures of the sanctuary from the balcony – that I missed the night before. Teachers and students entering the narthex to go to […]
Tuesday, July 11 Operation Arctic – Exploring the Coolest Book on the Planet. It was interesting to see the exterior to this room – our usual Sunday school room. We arrived early, so I walked around the hallway on the first level – I did not go to the basement rooms. Rooms and door entrances […]
Tuesday, July 11 I know I took pictures at the High Reunion on Sunday, July 9 – but they are nowhere to be found, so I must have accidentally deleted them. 🙁 Consequently I am moving on to photos from Kids’ Days. An Esbenshade’s employee welcomed us to the event. When I received the email […]
Saturday, July 8 Beauty outside our motel in Berlin I was glad that our GPS took us over country roads as we headed toward the interstate. We see wheat shocks on occasion in our area, but not like in Ohio. Love seeing Queen Anne’s Lace I was almost sad to leave this beautiful Amish country. […]
