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

Got Milk?

65 degrees when I walked this morning.
A little fog around and then a mix of sun and clouds.
Not much of a breeze.

Walked up the hill and around the cemetery to start.

You can see how big the baby geese got - not babies anymore.


 The field has been mowed down.
I bet tomorrow I see rolled hay here.


Stopped at the Jeep and picked up another book which I
brought to the library and put it down the slot.

Continued on over to the industrial park and walked around some of it.
Then over to the ball park and walked around there before
going back to the pond.

Rebecca was out walking and we passed each other twice.
Carrie was walking too - nice to see her again,
it's been a while since she's been walking.

I think this is called
Butterfly Flower.
Edited - Ginny identified this as Butterfly Milkweed.
Thanks Ginny

Washed a load of clothes and them hung out on the line.
Then off we went to Walmart to do our weekly food shopping.
Believe it or not they didn't have any milk so we had to 
stop at Shop and Save on the way home to get some.

Made another stop at the library to pick up another DVD and a book.

I got The River We Remember.
It's another book by William Kent Krueger.
Hoping this one will be as good as the other two I've read by him.
I'll start it later this evening.

Hope you had a wonderful day.
Thanks so much for stopping by.

Monday

This morning when I walked it was 65 degrees.
It was foggy and cloudy and calm.
Sunrise 5:52

Walked around both of the cemeteries to start.

The sun is trying hard to shine through the fog and clouds but
never made it while I was walking.


After going around the cemeteries I headed down the main
road back towards home and then turned around.

Made a stop at the Jeep and picked up a book and a DVD
and went to the library and put them down the drop.

From there I walked up and down some side streets
and went over to the ball park loop and walked around there too.
Then it was back to the pond.

Work continues on the street where the houses will be built.
I think all the water and sewer lines have been buried.


A man I didn't know was out running and I saw him a few times.
I think he must have been visiting someone because
he wasn't very friendly.

Last evening at church the choir put on a Cantata 
honoring God and country.
They did an excellent job and I don't think there was a dry eye 
in the crowd.
I wish you all could have been there.

It was still cloudy during the rest of the morning but I washed
the sheets and another load and hung everything out on the line.
The sun eventually did come out.

Baked some more chocolate chip cookies for Bible Time.
I now have baked 17 dozen.
Just another 3 dozen to go.

I started cleaning this week in our bedroom.
Got it vacuumed and dusted GOOD.
Even moved furniture away from the wall to give it all a good cleaning.

I was busy most of the day but did find a little time to read.


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