Linden and I went to the funeral in Anneville on Wednesday.  Then I took Mom to the internment in Hagerstown and to Jeff and Toni's house for lunch on Thrusday .  These pics are from Thursday.

"Step out of the Traffic" Weekend w Mom and sisters

Psm 46:10 Step out of the traffic!  Take a long, loving look at me, your High God, above politics, above everything. (The Message)
Psm 46:10 Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.  (NIV)

Rachel drives so she doesn't get car sick.

I'm writing some interesting commentary about what Uncle Chet  might have been met with when he first entered heaven early this morning.

Aug. 19 2012 Anna at Duke

This is way out of order.  Linden and I took Anna and all her earthly belongings to NC back in Aug.  It was not a great picture taking weekend because of the weather and moving in takes focus, but Duke has a beautiful campus especially the Sarah P. Duke gardens.  



Sunday afternoon

GP often picks this chair to nap on.  Petra often picks this chair too.  GP looks like he's ready to bolt but he actually stayed there with his head drooping over the arm like that for quite a while.


He thinks he's sitting on a fence post.

Oct 5, 2012 Driving tour w Uncle Glenn






Tim and Lavonda Martin with their daughter Beverly, me and Uncle Glenn Showalter.   Uncle Glenn is the relative closest to the next older generation and so Linden wanted to get some places of Showalter and Shank history from him.  It was a beautiful and fun day!
