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

Fish and Chips

Great morning for walking.
The temperature was 45 degrees, sunny, and no wind.
Perfect weather for walking.
Sunrise 6:46

On the way to town I saw 2 deer and a bunny rabbit.

Started out walking down the road I just drove up.


 Then back to town but made a detour and walked up and down Sale Barn Road.


 Back to town I walked around the cemetery on the hill.


The 5 bulls are no longer in the pasture by the Drane house but in the field behind the cemetery.
Only 4 bulls in the picture, the fifth was over by the fence sleeping so couldn't get him in the picture.


Last walked around the other cemetery and that finished my walk.

😊    🐄    🐰    🥾    ☀️

The rest of the weekly house cleaning got done.

Finished counting out the last of the gospel tracts that I had to do.
Here they are all out on the table. 


Each 10 has a rubber band around them and are stacked in piles of 5.
100 piles comes out to 5,000 tracts.
I did 5,000 different ones yesterday so 10,000 in all.
Someone else from church did another 10,000.

We had a late lunch early supper out with David and Liz up the road at a gas station/truck stop/restaurant. 
Every Friday they have fish and chips.
This is the first time we went for the fish and chips and they were VERY GOOD.

This evening I hope to read and knit.
Still working on the cable stitch pillow but I've started another blanket too.
The stitch for the blanket looks like a basket weave.
Will take a picture when I have a little more done.

So that's it for today.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you had a great Friday.
HappyK 😊

Seedlings

A little warmer today at 38 degrees and another sunny morning starting out with a beautiful sunrise.


Now when I get to town I see the street lights turning off so it is light enough to start walking anywhere.

First went around the cemetery up the hill and over to see the cows again.
Most had their heads through the bars and were eating.
Made a collage of them.

I went to Jigidi puzzles and made a puzzle of the cows. 
It is kind of hard and took me nearly an hour to finish doing the puzzle.
If you'd like to give it a try you can do the puzzle HERE.

Next I went around the other cemetery, then over to the ball park and then finally just all over town.

As usual I enjoyed my morning walk and thankful that I am able to!!

Book club morning at the library.
A great turnout this time with 13 people participating, everyone liked the book and we had a good discussion.
We have the book picked out for next month and the library had copies of it there so I have the book already.


This afternoon I went out in the garden shed and transplanted the little seedlings into cups so they have a bit more room to grow.
Can't plant anything outside here till the end of May.
They should do nicely here by the back door till I can plant them outside.
4 tomato
3 beans
2 radishes


Ken cut three dead trees down out front.


My job is to put the branches on the natural fence I'm making with all the dead fall. It's a never ending job because there are always branches coming down somewhere.
I like making the fence though and many little animals live in it.
The deer like to lay next to it also.
You can see some of the fence in the picture.


Before going back inside the house we sat out on the front porch for a while.

It's been a good day.
Maybe spring is finally here to stay this time.
Hope you enjoyed your day and thanks for stopping by.
HappyK😊
