Sam’s Orchard
Sunday Morning, September 21 I made sure I had time to walk through Sam Rittenhouse’s orchard and garden following breakfast on Sunday morning.

Corn Harvest Next To Our House
Friday, September 19 I heard the machinery before I saw them. This is when I pray for those running tractors on top of the silage. By the time I went to the motel to meet my blog friend, Donna, (from Virginia) the field below our house was finished. We had a wonderful evening together – […]

Pizza Supper
Thursday, September 18 Because Mark and Diane were visiting from Maine, I thought it would be fun to have my siblings and their children here for a pizza supper so they could visit.

Mother’s 97th Birthday

Wet Cardinal & Migrating Phoebe
I’m not sure that I ever saw a cardinal who was so wet. He looked rather pathetic. Maybe his wife wouldn’t let him in the house during the rain storm. 🙂 A few days later I looked outside and saw an unfamiliar bird. That means it is probably migrating. How many of you know what it is […]
