But The People
As we have been travelling off the beaten path, we have been meeting such nice, chatty people. There was the woman who made breakfast at the hotel who told us about her childhood participating in the rodeo and found out later in life that her family was involved in the Mafia. One store owner brought […]
Getting Ready
My grandson works at an auto parts store, so as I’m preparing to take a road trip, he helped me pick out some emergency equipment. Today’s weather was very nice, so I got my car cleaned out and tried out the devices. My brother arrived just in time as I was trying to figure out […]
Puppy Antics
After a fun, family weekend at the cabin, we got things ready to go home this morning. My brother was scheduled to arrive this afternoon as he returned for the summer, so we wanted to make sure everything was ready for him as well. My son and his wife recently got a new puppy and […]
The Journalist
For the past 4 years, my grandson has been involved in the media program at his high school. He has learned a lot and has really enjoyed making short videos. One of the segments he recently made won a local award and was entered into a national competition. The media teacher organized a trip to […]
Unknown Pilgrimage

God’s Country
When I thought about what to do when my friend was here for a visit, I realized it would be a great opportunity to go to the cabin. So, today my brother went to the house in the city, and my friend and I went to the cabin. She was in awe just from the […]
Across Countries
This morning bright and early I saw a video from my grandson. He is in Monaco for the Grand Prix. The video showed the cars whizzing by as they practiced on the course. My grandson had a good vantage point at the cafe where he was hanging out. We started texting and he shared photos […]
Good Start
My grandson is going on his first solo adventure. I’ve been praying for his protection. For the first part of the trip, he left this morning to drive to the East Coast. I was glad to hear that he made it to his first stop safe and sound. He’s off to a good start. I […]
Best Places to Visit
Today we found a show that highlighted the 50 best places to visit in the United States. We got about half way through as we watched a couple of different times. Out of those that we saw, my mom had been to all but 1 of them. It was a good exercise for her to […]
