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

Sunday

Happy Sunday
No sunrises or sunsets this week, it's been raining or cloudy,
but here's a couple pictures from todays walk. 




We sang this hymn in church this morning and it is also
one of the hymns that the church in town plays on the church
bells every day at noon.

🎶 Abide With Me 🎶
Henry Francis Lyte

1. Abide with me: fast falls the eventide;
the darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.

2. Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away.
Change and decay in all around I see.
O thou who changest not, abide with me.

3. I need thy presence every passing hour.
What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like thyself my guide and strength can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.

4. I fear no foe with thee at hand to bless,
ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me.

5. Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes.
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies.
Heaven's morning breaks and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

A Blessed Sunday to you.

Windy


Well, I certainly had a windy walk this morning.
The kind that gives you a push along or makes you take a step back.
Wore my rain gear because it was supposed to be raining
but it didn't start till I got back home.
The temperature was 46.
Sunrise 5:56

 Walked around both cemeteries first and then over to the ball park loop.
Then continued all around town up and down all the side streets.

Up at the cemetery all the flags were put by the graves
who where veterans. 
The orange flags are for people who were firemen here in town.
You can tell how windy it was by all the flags being straight out.


These irises are a bright color on a dreary morning.


Rebecca was out walking.
I was leaving town when I saw her walking down her driveway.

It was just me, Debbie, and Jalene at the library for stitching this morning.
I knitted on the basket weave blanket,
Debbie was knitting socks,
and Jalene was crocheting a scarf.

Finished reading Where the Sky Begins by Ryhs Bowen this afternoon.
Everything I've read by her I liked.

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