Two surprise guests at my house!

One I know is a Lilly, the other, I'm not sure who that is!

Freda's Thoughts "My First Car"

I can just see Freda driving that old car around, can't you?  She told me that her car would start in the dead of winter, when others would not!  It was able to climb those mountains too!  It served her well!  Please leave your comments to encourage her.   Thanks!   The Old Man in the Bib Overalls

Seeing "Red" at my house!

This has been a great summer for flowering plants around my house!  Everything is so lush and inviting!  These might be the last of the flowers for the year, but what a way to go out, in style!
Whoever buys this property will have a bunch of surprises; each year the gardens are different, but always beautiful!
The restoration on the exterior is proceeding, and almost complete!  The hot weather and intermittent showers have slowed progress somewhat; but it will be well worth the wait!  When it is complete, I'll post some pictures.  Thanks for looking!  The Old Man in the Bib Overalls

Freda's thoughts & Rev. Jim's too!

We never know what a day brings, but we know who brings the day!  And we know that His Grace is sufficient!
I am not able to put Freda's post on here today.  The world has turned upside down!  I am on my way to having an unexpected surgery!  I've had to scramble to get someone to take care of Sister Freda in my absence, but the Lord has provided!
Please pray that all turns out well for me.  Thanks.
Lord willing, Freda's post will be on next week.

June still has its surprises!

Last night Sister Freda and I watched the fireworks display

of the Mansfield Freedom Celebration, from her bedroom window! 

Today I looked out to see these lovely blooms are popping out in my backyard!

I missed putting pictures on of the fine crop of Mulberrys.

I'm sure the birds loved them!

The lushness of the Missouri Ozarks never ceases to amaze me!

I'm glad the Lord directed me here!

My historic house is still on the market, as I hope to down-size for health's sake.

The restoration to the exterior is almost complete now!

As soon as it is completed, I will post some pictures.

I doubt it has looked this good since it was built in 1881!

Some blessed person will be able to enjoy the many amenities, after I move!

Freda's Thoughts "What to go for a ride?"

Freda is still able to tap her memory for some great stories!  Please leave your comments to encourage her.  She is still recouperating from a fall in the house, she could use your prayers.

At age 94, you don't just bounce back to where you were!

Thanks!
