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

Out All Day

On my walk this morning it was 47 degrees and sunny.


First walked around both of the cemeteries.


Continued through town, up and down some side streets and 
over to the ball park and walked that loop
a couple of times.
Then it was back to the parking lot at the pond and the end of my walk.

The herd bulls are all gone from the pasture by the Drane house
to mingle with the cows.
I will miss seeing them but they will be back.

No one else out walking.


😊   ðŸ¥¾   ☀️

It was another day of doing Fingerprints at church so we left
right after breakfast.
Just a few of us working today but still we managed to get
10,200 Romans books, put together, stapled, cut, and boxed up
during these 2 work days.

There was a Teen Appreciation Dinner at church this evening
at 6:00 in the activity center.
We couldn't see going back home after Fingerprints just to turn around
and drive to church again (22 miles one way) so we went
to the library in Oakland and spent time there.
They always have a jigsaw puzzle out for anyone to work on
so I did that for a while.
Then read 3 magazines and finally found 3 books I'd like to 
read and checked them out.
The librarian at the desk checking out our books said to me,
Aren't you Karen, the walker around Accident?
I said yes, that would be me.

The Teen dinner at church was very nice.
We played some games,
ate, and laughed a lot.
Some of the teens were given awards for various things.
Pastor gave a touching message 
about having convictions and sticking to them and being
a light in the world of darkness.
So glad we attended to support our teens.
They are our future.

Posting a bit late today because we just got home.
Nice to be here and finally sit in our chairs and relax.
That's where I'm going now.

Will visit all your blogs tomorrow.
Hope you had a wonderful day.
Thanks for stopping by.

A delightful day

 


After not walking yesterday it sure was nice to be out walking 
around town today.
Perfect walking weather.
57 degrees, a mix of clouds and sun and calm.
Delightful describes it perfectly.

I had to get some routine blood work done and since I go right here
in town it is very convenient.


You can drop in any time between 6:30 and 10 to have blood drawn.
So I walked around one of the cemeteries and then on the way to
the other one popped in and had blood drawn.
I was in and out in 5 minutes.
I saw another lady there and she said to me,
I see you walking every morning.
I asked if she lived in town and she said no but she sees
me as she drives through town on her way to work.

Continued walking up the hill and around the other cemetery.
I noticed little tiny sprouts of corn in the fields on either
side of the road.



Next walked through town and to the ball park,
around there a couple of times and then back to the pond and parking lot.

No one else out walking but saw Bill (town worker)
mowing the lawn on the property the town owns.
He always keeps things neat and trim.
I thank him often.

😊    🥾    🌤

After breakfast I made us a couple of salads for lunch and then
we headed out to church for a day of Fingerprint work.
A pretty good turnout and we got quite a lot of Roman's book assembled.
Supper time we called out for pizza.
Worked a little longer and then we came home.
Here we are at work.


Nice to be home and relaxing.

Hope you had a wonderful day and thanks for coming by.
HappyK🙂
