I went to the relief sale in Harrisonburg today and guess who I saw? Helen and Wilber, my great-aunt and uncle. Today I was musing on the idea of connectedness, rootedness ... what it means in my life to be part of the Mennonite community.
I also got a baked potato for lunch, half a homemade donut, shared some black cherry icecream, and drank a cup of locally made apple cider. It pretty much redeemed my week - and reminded me of how much I love autumn in the Shenandoah Valley.
