One of my recent posts was on the long tradition of Sunday School picnics in York County, brought up by my plans to help at my church picnic at St. Luke Lutheran Church in Chanceford Township, always held the first Thursday of August.
After a few hours of helping cut up pies and cakes, I took my usual position of manning (womanning?) the soup carry-out window. My daughter and I, armed with quart measures, doled out gallons and gallons of ham bean and chicken corn soup for the next eight hours with hardly a break.
We had many friendly conversations with the happy purchasers as we dished out the soup, but one sticks out.
