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 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.

No walk and the waterfalls

Rain rarely keeps me from my morning walk but it did this morning.
Torrential rain with thunder and lightning.

This is the little waterfall that Ken made on the side of our house.
Most days it is dry.
I took a short video so you could hear the sound.


We ended up going down to LaVale.
Ken needed to go to Harbor Freight.
We just needed a few things from Walmart so went shopping
at the one in LaVale instead of the one in Oakland where we usually go.
This one is so much nicer that ours.
It is bigger with wider aisles.

Bad news about our little raised garden.
We've had it for a few years and part of the bottom rotted out.
All the rain we had made it heavy and the dirt fell out the bottom.
Saved some of the plants by replanting them in the other raised garden
that we have with strawberries in it.
This one is probably about to rot out too.
Just hope it lasts for this season.

Read this afternoon and worked a little more on the cow X Stitch.

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

Happiness is like a butterfly which, when pursued, 
is always beyond our grasp, 
but, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.
