Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
Tuesday, March 22 through Thursday, March 24 He looked pretty in the late afternoon sunlight on Tuesday. A pretty sunset on Wednesday night. I was surprised to see a robin at our suet on Thursday afternoon. It’s not often that a robin is seen at our suet. They usually prefer worms.
Wednesday, February 17 through Saturday, February 20 A hungry Dark-eyed Junco Female Dark-eyed Junco. European Starling A beautiful sunset On the 17th I had a delightful and delicious breakfast at Lintia’s Restaurant with my sister Nancy, then on the 19th – after Lois and Mary helped label the Highway News – our grandson Nathan took […]
Sunday, January 31 If you look closely, you can see a squirrel jumping from one branch to another. Did you find it? The beautiful evening sky
Friday, August 21 The morning was beautiful – the day after the rain. Raindrops were still hanging to the leaves. Somebody was busy during the night. By evening the sky “called” me to the outside. I couldn’t get enough of this sky. It won’t be many days before this corn will be in storage bins, so […]
Tuesday, June 30 and Wednesday, July 1 This is the only thing I bought at the Truck Rally Auction. Cerwin bought a few things, but this was my purchase. The pretty napkins and, plates, bowls, and plastic ware in the basket. Our granddaughter Lydia prepared the meal for us one day while I closed the books […]
Tuesday, June 23 Our mint tea was getting tall, so I asked our granddaughter Lydia (who was visiting from Maine) if she was interested in pulling the leaves so I could freeze them – instead of letting it go to seed. Shortly after she began working on the tea, I noticed a bird splashing in the birdbath, and thinking it was bathing, […]
Several days ago I noticed a yellow glow outside our windows and went for my camera. It was a beautiful evening. The day lilies looked pretty in the evening sun. Since I only have a few weeks to enjoy the daisies, I try to advantage of pictures. Changing the angle of the sunlight changes the […]
Saturday, April 18 This was our view as we drove down the hill from our cabin at Camp Victory on Saturday morning. Before long we were driving by many Amish farms. This large ear of corn took us by surprise. Cerwin stopped and backed up so I could get a picture. Someone told us it was designed […]
Thursday, April 16 This was our last sunset while visiting Bob and Doris. This picture was taken from the dock toward the house. Like I said last night – If I lived next to this lake, I would have to retire so I could take lots of pictures.
Thursday, March 12 The crocus are late this year because of snow and cold weather, but if we get a few warm days we will soon see their pretty blooms. I never tire of pretty sunsets. It is like God giving us a warm hug at the close of a day. If you look closely – in the […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Tuesday Evening, February 10 Watching the setting sun is like watching an artist at work. And He is an artist – The Master Artist. I never tire of watching the Master Artist.
Friday, February 6 I love beautiful, golden gifts.
January 17 & 18 Judi and her children enjoying window sunshine. They just got word today – Friday, January 23 – that the paperwork has been completed for them to leave Pennsylvania and head home with their little guy – who is in the process of being adopted. I am going to miss all four of them, […]
One evening I noticed a beautiful sunset about to happen as we drove to Landis Homes to visit Cerwin’s Mother, and took pictures of the process as we traveled. The sky continually changed as we went over hills and around corners.
Tuesday, November 25 Today I knew which entrance to use when visiting Mother in Oregon House at Landis Homes. I didn’t need the ambulance to show me which door to enter. 🙂 We like the sign that the nurses made for her – attached to the wardrobe in her room. Cerwin’s brother, Elvin, and sister Velda […]
Sunday Evening, November 9 The first two were not taken directly toward the sun – just using the sun. I had fun trying to get several pictures using the sunset as a background. I like this one.
I went through photos from October – before we delivered the chapel to Pass Lake – and gathered a potpourri of shots for tonight’s post. ~~~ Wednesday Evening, October 8 A pretty sunset The blood moon was beautiful in the night sky. ~~~ Thursday, October 9 Evening sky When walking toward the house from the previous […]
The last few days of September. A foggy, fall morning. Cerwin ordered a load of topsoil to fill in a low area in our yard. Then he borrowed my brothers’ skid loader to level it. ~~~ It was not enough, so he ordered a partial load the next day. Then it rained, then he was […]
Monday Evening, September 22 It is difficult for me to not go outside with my camera when the sky is pretty. As I crossed the road to get away from the power lines, I noticed the neighbor’s soybeans glowing in the evening sun. This field is not quite dry enough for harvest. To add to the […]
Tuesday, July 8 I was in a photo-taking mode (which is fairly normal) as we drove through Lititz to visit Cerwin’s mother. I was looking for “my” mules as we went around the backside of Lancaster Airport – and thought they were not outside – then I saw them in a different pasture. I never tire of seeing […]
I enjoyed an early morning walk around our yard a few days ago and thought you might like to see what I discovered. I found a few dew-covered spider webs. My first tomato is growing nicely. It looks like we will have more tomatoes this summer. Our ferns are full and beautiful. Daylilies in the morning sun. […]
Saturday evening, May 31 This is what we saw on the way home from Roy and Deb’s house after supper at RD’s and visiting them and their rescued animals. No words needed. Enjoy the ride.
Saturday evening, May 17 We enjoy this small banquet, because it gives us time to be with a wonderful group of TFC friends and supporters. Maggie blessed us with two beautiful songs. Bunny O’Hare gave a ministry update, thanked them for being faithful to TFC since 1975 ~ that’s 39 years ~ and shared how he challenges our […]
These pictures are left over in my file from about a week and a half ago. On this kind of morning, I am glad we live in the country and I can walk around our yard in a house coat – at least in the backyard. 🙂 It was warm, a bit foggy, and trees were […]
Friday Evening, April 18. Jere and Kristen invited us to go with their family to see Bears at a local cinema ~ as an early birthday gift for Cerwin. It is a rare occasion for us to go to a cinema, so we looked forward to the evening with great anticipation. We noticed that there were […]
Wednesday, April 9It was a cool, breezy evening, but the beautiful sky drew me outside. The sky was filled with interesting clouds. I walked to a spot ~ just a short distance from our house ~ where I had a good view of the valley and the setting sun. Then took pictures of what I saw. Yes, […]
I have seen seventy years worth of sunsets ~ and never tire of this end-of-day beauty. My interest in a sunset usually begins with the first pink glow in the evening sky. On this particular evening ~ when I went to photograph the evening sky ~ about a week ago, I noticed that one of our trees […]
