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

Interior Walls

🎃     🎃     🎃
Another frosty start to the morning.
Temperature 34 and the sun rose at 7:31 and then it was sunny.

Walked all around town, down the main street toward HT, back to 
town, around one of the cemeteries a couple of times and
the ball park loop.

Walked around the cemetery with Cathy.

Coming back to town I saw Ronnie heading up to the building site 
to get an early start again.  He is easy to spot coming down the road
in his ambulance work truck.

When I got back home Ken had already left and was up at the house site.

Walked 6.3 miles
Found a penny 💰
🎃     🎃
Went through some of my books with the thought of getting rid of some.
Less to have to back up for the move.
I did manage to weed out a few.
I have a couple of rows of books on the bookshelf that I have yet to read
and was looking through them and came across a book by Jules Verne,
 called the Mysterious Island and started reading it.  Only read
a few pages but it caught my interest right away.

There is one solitary daisy still blooming in my front garden.
It has hung on through two frosts now.
It warmed up nicely again and it was a beautiful sunny day.
Did some more work in the garden during the morning
and after lunch I went up to the building site.

The garage floor was poured first thing this morning and the guys
worked all day on it getting it smooth while it cured.
 Very exciting now that the interior walls
 are going up now and we can walk in the different rooms.
Took this picture sitting in the corner of our bedroom.
This one taken while standing in the laundry room.  
This one at the end of the day.
That's it for today.
Tomorrow the rest of the interior walls should be done.

A smile from me to you.
happyone 😊

Hello, love the pretty daisy. It is exciting seeing the inside walls going up and watching the progress. Happy Thursday, enjoy your day!

This is so exciting, when the walls go up, it makes it easier to plan where everything will fit in, I am hoping our heavy frost will hold off for a few weeks I still have lima beans growing.
Have a blessed day.
Blessings,
Sue

An exciting stage! That garage looks wonderful already! We're really pleased with our new house, even if we can't find anything!
