| The oldest and the youngest. |
This morning I can feel fall in the air here in Western Pennsylvania. The trees are beginning to take on a yellowish orange hue while the days get shorter and the wee bit of chill is in the air. In one short week we'll be packing up our earthly possessions and saying "Good-bye" to our home in Pennsylvania. We've lived in Pennsylvania all of our married life. We are accustomed to the winters, hurrying to grow and gather the food while we can, then canning and preserving it to assure that we have some of God's wonderful goodness to nourish our bodies through the winter. I'm sure there will be leaves to rake, but in a different way, with different things to go with those leaves. Instead of pine mulch, many people in Georgia use pine needles. Our realtor told us that pine needle mulch attracts cockroaches. Guess what we're NOT using for mulch?! Wow!
Today I will finish packing the living room and pack whatever I can in my kitchen(s). I am sure my new kitchen will serve us well. We'll serve others with hospitality and the love of Christ, opening the doors to our home for those who may be in need. We'll see where God leads us.

I'm not sure all the changes we will be making in this room, but the first thing is going to be a full size stove/oven. We do a lot of cooking and baking, so it stands to reason that we add a full size stove. I'm stil trying to figure out how to use the cubby between the refrigerator and the wall oven.
As we wrap things up here in PA, we are faced with bittersweet thoughts. Ones of missing our dear sweet friends, but also ones of excitement in the chapters to come.
Please continue to keep us in prayer.
God Bless,
