Traveling to a Celebration of Life for a TFC Friend
~~~ Monday, January 9 ~~~ We woke to a beautiful dusting of snow on Monday morning. The morning moon was also bright and beautiful. I said to Cerwin that our two-hour drive to Sunbury, PA, should be pretty – and it was. However, we were surprised to discover that we had more snow in our […]
I Never Tire of Watching Them Go by Our House
This one was really moving.
A Birthday Lunch with Donovan, Diana and Their Boys
~~~ Sunday, January 8 ~~~ Diana (our granddaughter) has been trying to get in her 2022 Birthday meal for several weeks, but it seemed something always hindered it. She and Donovan were doing a lot of local hunting – and did fill their freezer with venison – then there were several Christmas meals. Finally, we […]
Counted Cross Stitch
It had been a few months since I updated you on what I was working on in my counted cross stitch projects. Last fall I told you that all I had left to do on the raccoon was the background. Backgrounds are nice to do in the evening, but a solid background can also be […]
The First Sunrise of 2023
I was blessed and in awe of the first sunrise of the year.
Cork & Cap Restaurant with Roy and Deb
~~~ Friday Evening, January 6 ~~~ We have been working on going out with Roy and Deb – for his 2022 birthday – for quite a while. They wanted to get it in before the end of the year and planned a date here on December 30. Then Roy pulled a muscle in his back, […]
New Observations of a Carolina Wren
I have been watching Carolina Wrens from the time I knew anything about birds. I remember seeing them when I was young. I enjoy watching all birds and learning new things, or just being amazed at feather patterns – even in the most common birds. I know birds have tongues, but never thought much about […]
It’s Still Winter
The last few days have felt like spring, so I went outside to see if there are any signs of things springing up from the ground. The trees certainly don’t give us signs of spring. I didn’t even find any bursting buds. The oak trees still have their old leaves from last year, with no […]
Mr. Cardinal Paid Us a Long Visit
It was especially fun to capture this shot of him with two other birds – a Chickadee and House Finch. There was another male cardinal hanging out in the Dogwood tree. After spending some time in the colander, he moved to the tire feeder.
A Sunset I Couldn’t Ignore
This was one of the last sunsets of 2022. The evening sky and shadows on our driveway captured my attention. It is amazing how quickly the sky changes during the transition of a sunset.
Free Wheelin’
This scene happened right in front of us a few days ago when we were on our way home after visiting Cerwin’s brother Elvin and his wife Pat. (She recently had rotator cuff surgery and we found her doing well.) As first I thought the boys behind the carriage were riding their scooters at a […]
Two Sunrises That Brought 2022 to a Close
It was interesting to be editing these photos the day after listening to Genesis 1 and 2. The photos are from two of the last days of December. Last year I listened to the Bible chronologically for the first time in my life. I have read or listened to the Bible – Genesis to Revelation […]
A Foggy Last Day Of 2022
~~~ Saturday, December 31 ~~~ I thought the all-day fog was appropriate for the last day of the year. It makes a good analogy of what we know about 2023. Not much. We will only know as we step into the year and just keep walking.
Happy Birthday to Our Favorite Diane
