Yes, Yes, Yes. The Dischers, Frodges, and Gma Harris were off again on another north-bound travel. Where to, you ask?? Why to the rolling hills, the Perfect Paradise of cheese farms (Missouri), and the growing rocks and dropping turkeys of Arkansas (a family joke here).

What a nice post, Kitty! We did have a wonderful time at the Whiddons! And it is always a blessing to have Nathan share a song with us -- God has blessed him with a beautiful voice, and he is willing to use it for God's glory. Hmmm . . . I wonder if some other young men of God blessed with good voice will take the hint! (nah, never works that way!)
The concerts were wonderful, with such a variety of good music! Yes, it is always a blessing to stop at the Whiddons and enjoy true Southern, Christian hospitality.
Love,
Grandmother,
who cannot remember
what seemed so funny
at the time!
What fun! I am extremely jealous.
Paul was certainly the center of attention!
Wish we could have gone!
Love,
Abby
Great post! So nice to see everyone. Kitty, you really must get better at those boys' names. Even old Aunt Molly can remember them! Shame, shame!
That watermelon looked good. The Dischers took care of making sure it was thoroughly enjoyed!
Love you!
Aunt Molly
