Tuesday, August 16 Well, actually, there are more than two because of the garden tea (background). I cut the tea about two weeks ago, so it is just beginning to grow back. I know – many of you are already harvesting juicy red tomatoes, but I was late in planting ours and we have more shade than […]

Saturday, August 13 My shopping partners – our daughter Deb and her friends Dee and Bernae. Craft shows always remind me of the talent and creativity that God has given people.

Friday, August 12 Great-Grandma Hershey and the boys look forward to our annual game date. She plays “Golf” more than we do so we usually need a refresher round.

Tuesday, August 9 Inside the Visitors Center This place was full when we arrived at 10 AM (when it opens) – with 4 or 5 busloads of people. We thought we may have long waiting lines. When we were given instructions for getting tickets, she said they opened early for these buses – and they were […]
