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

A little kayaking

 

58 degrees this morning with a mix of sun and clouds.
Sunrise 6:33

Walked around the cemeteries and then down the road toward home,
turned up Barn Sale Rd.


I'm not the only one in town who hangs their clothes out to dry.


Back to town and up and down some side streets and
through town once again.

I walked down the road by the future home sites.
The road is still gravel but I'm sure it will eventually be paved.
All digging is done and the lots are ready now to be
bought and built on.
I bet it takes YEARS before all are sold and built on.
My guess is 5 years.

Great weather for kayaking, 
70 degrees with a nice mix of sun and clouds
so we left this morning after breakfast to do a little paddling.



 This is as far as I could go before I hit bottom.


Here we are returning after a great few hours on the water.
That's our red truck up there.


We were the only people out on the whole reservoir.
It sure was nice to be out paddling on such a beautiful day.

Didn't feel like doing much of anything when we got back home.
So just puttered about this afternoon.

Thanks for stopping by.
Hope you enjoyed your day.

Another day another walk ๐Ÿ™‚

 A cloudy morning walk today.
65 degrees and no wind.
I got a quick peek at a little blue for about 5 minutes.


A typical work all over town and the cemeteries and ball park.

John was walking Prim and Rebecca was out walking too
but both were too far away to talk to so we just waved.

A few pictures along my way.

Clouds gave way to some sun so I got 2 loads of laundry done
and that's it for this week.

Did a bunch of house chores in the morning
which left the afternoon for a little of this and that.
Finished reading, A Place Called Freedom by Ken Follett.
Though it was a bit predictable I liked the story
and enjoyed reading it.

Having some more of the chicken from yesterday for supper.
This time having it in a burrito shell with lettuce, tomato,
cheese, and Italian dressing.


Thanks so much for stopping by.
Hope you enjoyed your Tuesday.
