Our Thanksgiving Celebration
The day began with a beautiful sunrise. I enjoyed watching several birds eating their Thanksgiving breakfast. Later in the morning we went to church for our annual testimony of praise service.

A Delightful Weekend
It’s rather rare that I have a quiet weekend.

We saw many large fields of grain and storage bins in western Minnesota. One consistent thing on this entire trip was pretty, roadside […]
