Traveling Home from Ohio
Sunday, July 10 It was obvious that the Amish in the area had worship services, because we met many of them as we began our drive home – shortly after 7:00 AM. This was not as comfortable a drive for me as I am usually familiar with, since Cerwin was driving the International Chapel back to […]

A Funeral on July 4
