Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Baking a cake

43 degrees this morning for walking.
Still a bright moon and starry sky but a little low
lying fog around too at first.
Sunrise 7:42


Started my walk around town and then both cemeteries, the
ball park and the new road too.

This morning Rebecca was out walking Leo.

Pretty quiet around town but such a joy for me 
to be out walking each morning.

This morning I was in the kitchen baking a cake.
The recipe came from a friend of my mother's
back in the 60's.
It is sooo good.

Made it for this evening when David and Liz come over
for supper and game night.
We have fallen in the habit of doing this every other Thursday
and I look forward to it.
I'm making Chicken Enchiladas (RECIPE) with the chicken
I made in the slow cooker yesterday.

Went outside this afternoon and walked around Happy Trails 
and added a bit more brush to my brush fence.


That's my house down there.


Well that's about it for today.
Have to go put supper in the oven and the kids will be
here any time now.

Hope you had a wonderful day and thanks so much for stopping by.

The chickens

 A warm 48 degrees when I walked.
The moon was bright in the sky this morning 
but a few clouds around this time.
I woke up a bit late and didn't get to town till 7:00 to walk
so it wasn't quite so dark.


Walked around town and then both of the cemeteries,
the ball park, and the new road too.


Now that it was lighter out the chickens were out of their coop.
Here they come running over to me.


These two are my favorite ones.


I thought I'd see a few people out walking because I was a little
bit later but didn't see anyone.

When I first got to town the fountain in the pond was on.
I saw Bill a little while later and he was turning off the fountain.
My guess was the fountain would be turned off November first.
Was just a few days off.
I'll miss seeing and hearing the fountain but now the pond will be like glass
some days and I'll be seeing some great reflections.

We went to Walmart for our weekly grocery shopping.
Didn't need all that much this week so was in and out pretty quickly.

Stopped at the library on the way home to pick up another book
I had on reserve and a DVD Ken picked out.

Put some chicken in the slow cooker to use in a recipe tomorrow.

Puttered about the house this afternoon and off I go now
to get supper before going to church.
Having one of those salads with everything on it.

Hope you had a wonderful day.
Thanks again for stopping by.
HappyK 🙂❤️
