One
of my favorite ways to spend a summer
afternoon is to curl up with a good book. Like many
of you, I can read for hours on end. This photo shows
our new patio area where John and I enjoy
coffee in
the morning, reading the newspaper or visiting
with
friends.
It’s
so relaxing to grab a good book and
spend quality time simply reading. The one problem
about sitting quietly outside, is that I
notice all the
things that need to be done in the yard. More often
than not, I jump up and begin weeding or dead-
heading plants.
Gardening
is another favorite activity of
mine.
If you love the outdoors too, you know how
easy it can be to head outside to work just a
short time, and end up spending hours
puttering
around.
My husband John and I live in
the small
town of
Xenia, Ohio, where we raised our two sons
and all sorts of pets! John is on the faculty of
Cedarville University and I am an adjunct
instructor there. We are both in the Education
Department and truly enjoy working with the
university students and getting to know them
personally. If you click on our picture, you will
be taken to my photo album.
