Another sweet day with sweet JoJo ❤️

Just 3 years ago this week, we had four of our beloved grandchildren with us for the day, including Nathan (who played piano), Abby doing school work by the fire, and Jo and Gideon playing. Love these precious memories. Miss these lovely days ❤️ One post of several today.

Once the world’s fastest luxury ocean cruise liner (still holds that record) the SS United States was launched the same year I was born, and retired from service the year I graduated high school. Today she began her final trip, to be sunk off the gulf coast of Florida

Nothing gives us more pure joy than spending time with beloved grandkids. ❤️

Three years ago today, our last trip to Middle Creek to observe the migrating snow geese. I’ve the years we have taken grandkids there many times; this trip just the two of us. A few photos and one video in two separate posts

One of several posts from just one year ago today, here in our first months at Cornwall, on a visit from Jojo. She used Nana’s art table in its new space, helped Nana make valentine cookies (one video post) and played with Poppy on the Wii. Requires multiple separate posts. From February 9, 2024 ❤️

Five years ago today (Feb 8, 2020) we were in Key West, one stop on a Viking Caribbean cruise

Precious memories. Nine years ago today at Nana and Poppy’s house, we had five sweet kids and the weather was nice enough to spend some time outdoors ❤️

“you must not heed the words of those prophets or those who divine by dreams, for the Lord your God is testing you , to know whether you indeed love the Lord your God with all your heart and soul.” - Deut 13:3

Three Years Ago today, it was a pretty “typical” day for us at the time, with 3 precious grandkids spending their day with us ❤️

Sunday evening we attended a fundraising event for the Harrisburg Symphony, which featured Abby and two other dancers from the Lebanon studio. She was lovely as ever. Several video clips also here from the performance (separate posts)

County Band festival tonight at Lebanon HS

In this video clip of the band playing, we can’t see Seth, but we can see his trombone in the back row

You get a glimpse of Seth’s face in the back row at the end of this clip

Many people today sincerely (and wrongly) believe they are doing God’s work by waging political and cultural battles. Truth is, as Christians, we are not even supposed to preach salvation, but we are “commissioned to lift up Jesus Christ.” Click the link: utmost.org/updated/today/

Today with Jojo ❤️

Many today need God to “destroy our determined confidence in our own convictions;” doing what they believe to be God’s work when actually they are serving “in a spirit that is not His.” utmost.org/modern-class...

Not sure if this will be my main social media place. Trying out another which my very tech- and intel-savvy grandson says is very good with data security. I can be found there as Poppy-Bill-Sr site is Diaspora: diaspora.aidandunne.com/i/c7278dc5cd36

Seth on Saturday at this year’s District Band Festival. So proud of him. We are going to miss these annual events, as he goes away to college next year ❤️

Proud of Seth again this weekend, playing in the district band festival. Only posting one video clip here, obeying the Bluesky limit of 60 seconds. This is a small portion of a powerful and moving piece honoring the lives taken at the Mother Emanuel church shooting (Charleston, SC, 6/17/2015).

FYI: I am looking into another social media platform called Diaspora. If anybody has time to also check it out, let us know.

Mourning and remembering an old friend and former pastor from a long time ago. Rev. Bill had boys about the same age as ours. We had last visited him and his wife before the pandemic. 😞🙏
