A visit to The Pioneer Gas & Steam Engine Society

By Henrietta, on October 13th, 2011%

Last Saturday morning we ventured out to visit a local attraction. Well, kind of local, when you live in rural PA, anything within an hour’s drive is considered a local attraction! I’ve driven past the sign for The Pioneer Steam & Gas Engine Society many times over the years without giving it much thought. When my step-dad said they . . . → Read More: A visit to The Pioneer Gas & Steam Engine Society

Thirty Seven.

That’s how many pictures I found on my camera today.

Thirty seven pictures of….

A Frog.

We found this giant frog in the yard yesterday. He must have been on the move because of the heavy rain we had recently. Unbeknownst to him, our yard is not the safest place in the world . . . → Read More: The rescue of a big green Frog

Or maybe a better question would be, Are you sick of hearing about chickens yet? Sorry, can’t help it. I’m convinced every family should own a chicken… or 30. They are funny creatures, they lay eggs, they cluck, what’s not to love? {okay, they do occasionally get into things they shouldn’t, don’t let it deter you} . . . → Read More: Have you ever been to a chicken yard sale?

While I was a little bit too freaked out and panicking to even think about photos before the storm, here are just a few of the awesome clouds that lingered and floated past from 5 – 7 pm yesterday.

Wow! I don’t know if I’ve seen clouds like these, so huge and simply stunning.

Even my loyal blog readers may not realize that we do actually have a teenager in the house.

I took a moment to snap some photos last week when there was a rare teen sighting, and an outside one no less! These sightings are far and few between as said teen is usually holed up in a deep dark cavern with . . . → Read More: Wordless Wednesday – The Elusive Teenager!

What The Rain Does - {almost} Wordless Wednesday

It’s been quite wet around here lately. The ground slurps and gurgles when you walk across the grass and we’re starting to feel like we’re growing gills.

Last night the rain took part of the road with it when it washed out the culvert pipe. We woke to a firetruck and a tow truck outside of our window. Apparently someone jumped . . . → Read More: What The Rain Does – {almost} Wordless Wednesday

Guess what’s parked in my front yard now? Oh you thought I was going to say driveway? No, the driveway seems to be full. Full of job trailers, vehicles, motorcycles, etc. Super G. came home with a tractor the other day, WAIT! I mean Super G. came home with THREE large tractors the other day.

Full Moon last night was beautiful

Well, I sure won’t win any awards for these photos but I’m happy with them. This new camera of mine is still a mystery to me and I’m almost regretting getting one that I can play with. The Nikon P100 I recently bought does have some nice features that I am just not good at using…yet.

Anyway, when the . . . → Read More: Full Moon last night was beautiful
