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

God's beautiful world

Genesis 1:1 
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Genesis 1:31
Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good.  
So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

I didn't walk first thing in the morning like I usually do.  I had something I had to do this morning and didn't have time to walk before church.  So when I got home from church at 12:00 I changed into my walking clothes and went then.
I walked the same route again as the last couple of days on the streets and paths.  I only saw one deer which was nice because I didn't think I'd see any in the middle of the day.  I thought I would have seen a lot of people but I had the paths to myself.
I usually don't stop and sit on any of the benches I pass 
but this afternoon I stopped and sat here.
And looked out at the woods. 
It's hard to tell from the picture but it is quite a steep hill 
and there is a small stream running down below.
It was such a pretty day that I couldn't resist just sitting awhile to enjoy the woods.
The next four pictures are just pictures I took while walking along enjoying this beautiful world that God created for us.




Have a blessed Sunday and enjoy our beautiful world that God gave us.
Happyone :-)

Your pictures are gorgeous! You have such a beautiful place to walk!! I took a short walk today with my Mom who is recovering from heart valve surgery. It was a beautiful day in NC too.

I also walked later than usual. I walked from 4:30 to 5:15 - my daughter arrived and could cover my grand-dog MIlo. We can't let him loose without observation, and my mom and husband are not good at watching him. I crate him to take mom to church, but the rest of the time I don't crate him. So until my daughter arrived (she had to work today), I couldn't walk. But it was very cool and a pleasant walk just the same.
