A Month in Pennsylvania

Rambling - well, we've been rambling for a month and are glad to be back home.  We enjoyed the fellowship of friends and family in Pennsylvania so very much, but not so much that we regretted coming back to Maine!  Mom is such a dear to live with, and it is abundantly clear that Maine is where we belong now.

While in PA we met with various friends for meals and fellowship, celebrated a son's birthday (Seth), attended a Mark Lowery concert at CLA, enjoyed a "Christmas party" with our bicycle club IC3, dog-sat for a friend, moved a daughter (Ruth) from OCH apartment to condo, visited grandchildren - and their parents (Josiah & Rachel), made a pie with Ruth on PI day - March 14th, shopped at The Manning's and visited with my dear friends there, attended a children's concert at CBC, knitted seven hats, went GeoCaching with Seth, Miriam and Ruth, took Miriam to Dulles airport to see her off to South Africa where she will work a few months with WOLSA, volunteered at ABWE candidate seminar to prepare new missionaries, and attended the opening Sunday gathering at York LCBC.    I'm sure I've forgotten something, but yes, we kept busy.  Wouldn't have wanted to miss a bit of it.
