Monday, June 17 Jesse was here for the week, because his brothers Ian and Jared were in Wyoming for a science trip (through school), his big sister and brother have jobs, his dad had a busy week at DHIA with meetings, and his mom was doing her own job at the doctors office, plus filling […]
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 […]
Saturday, July 15 Caleb Joshua (or CJ) is our grandnephew – grandson of Cerwin’s brother, Elvin, and his wife Pat – son of our nephew Bryan and his wife, Leslie. Our daughter Deb with Caleb. Roy and Deb are sometimes weekend babysitters so he is a special little one to them. (Roy happened to be […]
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. […]
Friday, July 7 and Saturday, July 8 ~~~ Friday Evening Parade of Trucks – after leaving The Kidron Auction ~~~ Arriving at Mt. Hope Auction ~~~ John and Lydia Schmid – singing at Mt Hope Auction ~~~ Ice cream ~~~ Saturday morning at Mt Hope Auction ~~~ The chapel was parked in front of the […]
Friday Evening, July 7 Drivers began arriving at The Kidron Auction early to participate in the 7:00 pm Parade of Trucks. We arrived at 4:30 and there were already a lot of trucks on the 13 acre parking lot. The Sprunger Building was the center of activity as this is where drivers registered their truck, […]
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 […]
