Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
Wednesday, October 16 You should have seen me taking these morning dew pictures. My sister-in-law (who was driving by) asked me a few days later what I was taking a picture of – because I was laying in the grass in my house coat. 🙂 When I came upstairs (from my basement office) for lunch, […]
2 Corinthians 5:7 (GOD’S WORD Translation)
Tuesday, October 15 This is one of Jeff’s favorite restaurants, so I was not surprised when he chose this location for his birthday supper. It was a beautiful evening, so I was pleased to get a picture of Jeff and Chris in front of their ’46 Chevy. They enjoy taking it out on special occasions. […]
may I never forget the good things he does for me. Psalm 103:2 (New Living Translation)
It was a beautiful morning as we traveled to Flying J Travel Plaza near Elkton, Maryland. Monday, October 14. I especially enjoy this drive because we travel on back roads. Now that is an abandoned house. The weeds and vines are covering the first floor. I find abandoned houses interesting and sad. I wish […]
Because of his great mercy he gave us new life by raising Jesus Christ from death. This fills us with a living hope. 1 Peter 1:3 (Good News Translation)
Remember that I had a tomato plant that grew from a seed from last year’s tomato plant? I figured that it bloomed too late to survive the first frost. However, we got one tomato – and it was delicious.

should live the same kind of life Christ lived. 1 John 2:6 (New Life Version)
We were up really early on Saturday morning, October 12 – like 3:30 a.m. – so we could leave the house by 4:30, be at the TFC office by 5:00, and leave with International Chapel #2 shortly thereafter. It was still dark when we arrived at Menges Diner at 6:00 a.m. – where the prayer breakfast and bake sale […]
that it is impossible to explain his decisions or to understand his ways. Romans 11:33 (GOD’S WORD Translation)
I am not sure how to connect these pictures of pumpkins and birds, but these are what I have left over after going through and posting my pictures from the first week of October. ~~~ The Pumpkins I took this picture at a place of business just because I thought it was an attractive fall decoration. ~~~ The Birds Male […]
He is a fortress in the day of trouble. He knows those who seek shelter in him. Nahum 1:7 (GOD’S WORD Translation)
A yellow glow outside our house windows entices me to grab my camera. Our little valley is especially beautiful at sunset. I liked how the sun was setting on the neighbor’s buildings. It has been an interesting fall. The leaves are changing gradually – and some are already falling. The source of the yellow glow on this […]
Think about things that are pure and lovely, and dwell on the fine, good things in others. Think about all you can praise God for and be glad about. Philippians 4:8 (Living Bible)
The other week (October 7-10) we thought that it may never stop raining. About the time we thought there was going to be a break in the weather, it began to rain all over again. The Manheim Farm Show even had to cancel some of its activities. We do not live in an area that floods, […]
and that you will have joy as you wait and do not give up. Colossians 1:11 (New Life Version)
The chapel under construction – for Hudson, Wisconsin – is moving along quickly. The ceiling was finished in mid-September. When the interior was finished to Cerwin’s satisfaction (early October), he took the trailer to Mev Weaver’s for sandblasting and painting – and to Cerwin’s surprise, Merv called him yesterday that it is finished. Wow! Cerwin didn’t expect […]

Presented by Manheim Community Farm Show Saturday evening, October 5 Our original plan for the day was to take our friend Gerald along on a bus trip to Quecreek Mine and the crash site of United Airlines Flight 93, but the trip was cancelled due to the government shutdown, so we went with Plan B – supper at Kountry Kitchen […]
Philippians 1:27 (Contemporary English Version)
We love you! Grandpa & Grandma
These pictures were all taken from our yard during the past few weeks – in a variety of directions. I love being outside on a warm fall morning when the early light is coming through the trees. It is different every morning. A foggy morning. When I am outside at noon I like to look up to see what is happening […]
Time and again it has been proven true. Psalm 119:140 (Easy-to-Read Version)

and let him be the foundation for your life. Colossians 2:7 (Contemporary English Version)
Saturday Evening, September 28 This reunion – on the last Saturday of September each year – is something we always look forward to, partly because of the good food and partly because of the great fun we have together. Most of those in attendance are first cousins (and their spouses) – children of Cerwin’s mother and her siblings, […]
