A delightful morning for walking.

63 degrees and sunny

Sunrise 6:01

Began my walk going around both of the cemeteries.

Then through town to the ball park and around that loop a couple of times.

Continued all around town till I had all my steps and then headed

back to the pond.

This farm pond is down in back of the Drane house.

I usually end my walk here over looking the pond.

Always so peaceful.

Shelia was out doing her laps around town.

Saw Carrie walking and also Anna and her Dad Mark.

As I got home from walking I was greeted by my neighbor cows. 

They had escaped again. 🙂

Ken said they had been all around the house a little earlier.

They eventually found their way back home like they always do.

We didn't need all that much this week so we just went to

the Shop and Save this morning to pick up a few items.

Nice not to have to make the Walmart trip this week.

Got a bit of house cleaning done this morning.

Did a little reading and also got some knitting done.

Still working on the basket weave baby blanket.

That's all for today.

Hope you had a wonderful Tuesday and

thanks so much for stopping by.

Plenty of people miss their share of happiness, 

not because they never found it, 

but because they didn't stop to enjoy it.

Day 13

Shadow

📷    📷

This morning when I walked it was a nice sunny one 

and the temperature was 60 degrees with a breeze.

Sunrise 6:00

Started my walk going down the main road towards home

and then back to town with a detour up Barn Sale Road.

Then through town, up and down a few side streets

and over to the DG Market.

Continued up and down the road behind the store.

Back to town and around the ball park loop and then back to the pond.

The geese families have come back and the babies are now all grown.

As I passed by the building site for all those new houses

one of the workers was near the road and we talked for a bit.

He said he's seen me walking for years and asked the usual questions.

He told me where all the 10 houses would be and said they are hoping

that people will buy a couple lots to build a house on.

That would be nice so the houses wouldn't be shoved so close together.

😊    🧢    🥾    ☀️

Perfect weather for sheet washing day.

The sun and breeze had them dried in no time.

They were back on the bed at 11:00.

Pulled some weeds out of the gravel.

No red tomatoes yet but we have lots of green ones.

Hard to wait for them to ripen.

I grew them from seeds!!

We went to town and did a few errands.

Sat out on the porch and read for a while

and Ken joined me.

That's going to be it for today.

Hope you had a wonderful Monday

and thanks so much for stopping by.

The unthankful heart... discovers no mercies; 

but let the thankful heart sweep through the day and, 

as the magnet finds the iron, 

so it will find, in every hour, 

some heavenly blessings!
