Autumn on South Mountain

We love this place.

Beautiful autumn evening on South Mountain.

Hemlock Home on Friday night

This week's rain has swollen Jack's Creek, in back of the cabin at
Hemlock Home. It's a beautiful autumn evening here in Mifflin County.
Food for the soul. I miss Debbie, but I'll see her Sunday!

Acorn-paved driveway

We've never seen so many acorns as we found this morning at Hemlock
Home. Sure feels like autumn this morning!

Another nice weekend at Hemlock Home

Allison had to attend a baby shower and Chris was working at the Penn State game Saturday, so Debbie and I got to babysit Thad for a while.  As always, we had a nice time.  Here are a few photos from our Saturday afternoon:

No matter how much fun we have with Thad, no one can take the place of "Mama."

Babysitting Thad on Sunday

We had a chance to babysit Thad on Sunday.  Allison and Chris had a wedding reception, so we got to have Thad join us at church. Here are some photos after we had lunch back at the cabin.  The first one shows Debbie getting Thad to show us his muscles.  One of them shows Debbie and Thad saying prayers:

Mommy's here!

Thad likes his sandbox that his Dad built for him.
