4-H Dairy Club


We had a meeting at our place


At first we were still in the sun but it did get cool


We even toured the old barn


The group got split in 2


They even had to judge some calves and give reasons
that is difficult when they are running around

Make Room for God conference

6 of us went to Oakville for a Coffee-break conference.


There were about 750 women


we got up to do some exercises


met some old friends


great lunch and snacks





one of our inspirational speakers


sisters-in-law


Marian did a great job


saw some of our Israel friends



and we learned some things

about hospitality: going to other people's places to eat their food
and drink their coffee is also hospitality 

Making room for God - keeping Sabbath by:
play, rest, eating well, have a nap, make love, story telling
turning off technology, gather for worship, swim, hike or paddle

and one of our speakers has her own blog:

a very good day!
