Action in the Field Next to Us Today

 It was a glorious day in our neighborhood.

These two vehicles rumbling by our house emitted a sound of great power.

Trucks waited in the wings until the one in use blew his horn – notifying them his truck bed was almost full.

 Each time I watch the harvest in my brothers’ fields I am reminded of the assurance of Genesis 8:22.

While the earth remains,

seedtime and harvest,

cold and heat,

 winter and summer,

and day and night

shall not cease.  NKJV

We had a wonderful family reunion at our pavilion tonight.  I can’t believe I forgot to take pictures.  I took some of the above photos while waiting for uncles, aunts, and cousins to arrive.

It was windy during the early part of the meal – when I usually take pictures – and i was occupied with trying to keep things from flying away!  When the wind died down half an hour later, I was occupied with eating and visiting – and never remembered that my camera was a few feet away.

The Hawthorne’s are my mother’s family.  I love visiting with this part of my heritage, as I don’t see them very often.
