Not-Quite-Country Girl

While I love many things about Indiana winters, I don't enjoy the often-long strings of gray, dreary, gloomy, cloudy days.

Sunday was a day of celebration, as our youngest grandson Daniel (6 months old) was dedicated to the Lord in a special service at their family's church in Cleves, Ohio.

"Make new friends, but keep the old; one is silver and the other gold."

 "O Lord, it is You who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that is in them..."   Acts 4: 24

A few weeks ago, Kim and I joined 50 others from our church family for a trip to visit The Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Kentucky.

I must admit, I would've totally missed Saturday night's moon had my friend Terri not texted me (as I was sitting comfortably in my jammies by my fireplace, relaxing after returning home from a busy-but-fun week of travel) to get my camera and take a photo of the gorgeous moon.

Earlier this month, Kim and I were so very blessed to witness two of our grandchildren's dedication in their new church.

The Nettle Creek Players tent theater was a summer regular during my teenage years in the small town of Hagerstown, Indiana.

The evening of July 7, just before dusk, I took this photo.  Once again, we had been slammed with a torrential rainstorm, flooding the fields and garden and completely flattening our first planting of sweet corn.
