7-25-11 Ben’s Garden Report
My strawberries are done producing.
This is my last onion that I haven’t pulled yet.
I pulled out all my beans so there are no pictures of those.
My field corn ears are getting bigger.
The mint Mom planted is growing.
The tomato plant is huge. I've picked a couple tomatoes so far.
There are a lot of blooms on my soybeans that you can’t see.
My tree has grown two inches since I planted it.
My purple peppers are bitter so they make perfect chicken feed.
My potatoes look weedy but really they aren’t. In the background is Jewel’s corn. It’s growing fast.

7-24-11 Winthrop
Saturday bright and early we (minus Levi who was milking) were on the road to spend a great weekend with Glen and Rachel and family. I’ll say right off that as much as we weren’t planning on a new van right now, it was really a good thing as traveling was AWESOME!!! We had a LOT more room which we greatly appreciated.
Here’s some px from the past couple days.
Captain Dad. My favorite part of the trip :)
(Cheese it!)
Cute cute kids!!
Cabela’s.
Kate took most of these display px. They were pretty neat.
Levi would have loved the fishing section.
Kids had a blast after supper.
One of the funniest and funnest, I’m told, things I’ve seen in a long time! Abigail Messner (Michael & Rachel’s) had the first turn after Lena demonstrated.
Ben’s turn.
Try as he might, Jesse just didn’t fit.
Noah pushing Lena (I think).
This bike looked like fun -
- as did this one.
Noah put them together -
- to make a great bicycle built for three. It was so fun! I thought the girls took some px of it but evidently they didn’t. At any rate it looked pretty neat!
Josh liked Sadie the dog. I don’t know who took these px, as I was inside most of the evening, but (s)he did a good job.
Sunday morning before church.
We so enjoyed our first visit to the Winthrop church. They’re a smaller congregation than we are by a long ways, but we found the same warm fellowship, truthful preaching, and wonderful singing that we have at home. It was good to meet old friends again from way back in young group days as well as make new friendships. After church we packed up at Glen’s and appreciated a good snack and more fellowship before we headed back south.

As always, good to go, but also good to be safely home again!
Thanks Steiners for a wonderful weekend!
