Snow, Ice and Flowers From Last Week
Monday, March 2 through Wednesday, March 4 We went from snow and ice (last week) to a warm, rainy, spring-like week, so it’s difficult to remember that these pictures are from just a week ago. Morning shadows on the snow. Sam (man cave “grandson”) was kept busy shoveling snow for several days. The ice and glitter were pretty, […]
Sibling Supper At Mother Hershey’s House
Sunday Evening, March 1 Mother called me in the morning – before church – to see if we still wanted to come for supper since snow and ice was predicted. Our dad would have been proud of us, because each one said they liked the challenge of driving through snow. Daddy enjoyed driving in snow. Our […]

Winter Tea ~ The Hats
Part 1 of 3 RD’s American Grill, Quarryville, Pennsylvania, put on a fabulous tea on Saturday afternoon, February 28. I think there were about 70 ladies and girls. I loved seeing the wide variety of hats and headgear ~ and thought you would too. Tomorrow night I will feature the ladies and a few more hats.
A Delightful, Cold, Winter Day.
Friday, February 27 A pretty cardinal posed for me in the early morning sun. I like when I have time to enjoy the birds. I noticed a tufted titmouse on a feeder close to the kitchen window while I was still holding my camera. In the afternoon, when going to visit Cerwin’s mother, we noticed this plane coming […]

Manure & Sheep
Wednesday, February 25 We awoke to a certain “country scent” in the air after manure was spread on the field next to our house. Thankfully we did not smell it indoors. It is interesting that God created birds to love this kind of thing. That way, the corn and grain that was eaten by the cows becomes food […]
Cards ~ Pattern ~ Geese ~ Sunset
Tuesday, February 24 I was anxious to open the box that arrived from National Wildlife Federation. It included cards using one of our daughter Deb’s photos. This one is of Chester when he was a baby. Congratulations, Deb. Jared and Jesse were here for a bit after school, and when Jesse saw me stitching Jared’s picture, he asked […]
Snow ~ Again
Sunday, February 22 Snow seems to be the theme for our weekends in recent weeks – and for many days during the week. Cerwin opened our driveway before church in the morning. Toward evening I went outside to take a picture of the sunset. This is what I saw when I looked up. The sky […]
New Chapel Construction
This is a used 53′ trailer and will go to the Pilot in Ocala, Florida, I-75, Exit 358. If you read our latest newsletter and thought it was going to be a promotional chapel (used to take to churches, truck shows, etc.), that was changed a few weeks ago when funds were raised for the Pilot. The trailer was donated […]
Prayer Breakfast & More Snow
Saturday, February 21 We were out of the house early and headed into the sunrise as we traveled to the Lancaster Chapter Prayer Breakfast at Yoder’s in New Holland. I love driving into a sunrise when God is putting on a show. I shared my part first. I told about some of my experiences in […]
Snow Plows & A Pretty Sunset
Friday, February 20 One mailbox down! Apparently a snowplow hit it during the night. Cerwin was able to repair it without much trouble. Later in the morning a front end loader came through to push the snow farther into the field in preparation for another snow storm. A regular snow plow followed to make sure the […]
Ice Sculptures
It has been so cold in our area that ice sculptures from the 10th Anniversary Fire and Ice Festival in Lititz are still intact. The festival was held from February 13-16. This one is in front of Hershey and Gibbel Insurance on Broad Street. The five I photographed are all from Broad Street. In front of the […]
