Tuesday, June 23 Our mint tea was getting tall, so I asked our granddaughter Lydia (who was visiting from Maine) if she was interested in pulling the leaves so I could freeze them – instead of letting it go to seed. Shortly after she began working on the tea, I noticed a bird splashing in the birdbath, and thinking it was bathing, […]
We love you! Daddy & Mother
Sunday afternoon, June 21 Our plans were changed slightly during our time at Big Rig Sunday (previous post) as Jere and Kristen had to go to the hospital to be with their adopted seventy-year-old special-needs son who had just been admitted to the hospital. We had been invited for lunch, and since everything was in […]
Manheim Brethren In Christ Church – Sunday, June 21 This is a day when we have opportunity to tell the young Sunday school classes about trucks and Transport For Christ. Gene (right) told the children about the value of listening to God – and how truckers listen to the sounds of a truck when traveling over the highway. Listening helps a […]
Saturday, June 20 We woke up to rain on Saturday morning – heavy rain. Despite the rain, trucks continued to arrive. The weather cleared by 9:00 AM and people began checking out the trucks again. I would guess that this golf cart is owned by a trucker. I was pleased when an old trucker friend (green) […]
Friday, June 19 It was nice to find a few daylilies at a truck show. Macungie is a large park, and a beautiful place to have a truck show Trucks continued to arrive all day long. It was a beautiful day to be a vendor at a truck show. Back at the chapel – following […]
Antique Truck Club of America – Friday, June 19 We had a pretty, hazy, drive to Macungie, which is located about one-and-a-half-hours northeast of us. The first thing we did was set up the chapel – which Jake and Cerwin took to Macungie the day before to make sure we can get into our spot before a […]

Several days ago I noticed a yellow glow outside our windows and went for my camera. It was a beautiful evening. The day lilies looked pretty in the evening sun. Since I only have a few weeks to enjoy the daisies, I try to advantage of pictures. Changing the angle of the sunlight changes the […]
Today’s Truck Rally was one like we never had in 35 years – rain and cool weather all day. About 90 (I haven’t heard the final count) brave truckers brought their beautiful rigs. That was a small Truck Rally “fleet” for us, but everyone had a good day. Another first for the rally – the […]
Monday, June 15 I had Jere and Kristen’s three youngest boys while they took Jana to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia for a test to follow up on her SMA – a secondary problem to her stomach pain and nausea – probably due to fast weight lost. (Superior mesenteric artery syndrome is a rare digestive system […]
Saturday, June 13 ~~~ The Gift We were surprised to receive a package from our granddaughter Lydia. It was from Koinonia Farm where she had been serving on a work camp. It arrived a few days before she did. Everything is delicious, but the Hickory Smoked Pecans are fabulous. ~~~ The Dinner Concert A friend […]
