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

A foggy morning walk today.


Sunrise walking up to the cemetery earlier this week.


Sunset from the front porch a few days ago.

This is one of the hymns we sang at church this morning.
I have many favorites and this is one of them.

🎢 Grace Greater Than Our Sin 🎢
Words Julia H Johnston
Music Daniel B Towner

1. Marvelous grace of our loving Lord,
grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt,
yonder on Calvary's mount out-poured,
there where the blood of the Lamb was spilt.

Refrain:
Grace, grace, God's grace,
grace that will pardon and cleanse within;
Grace, grace, God's grace,
grace that is greater than all our sin.

2. Sin and despair like the sea waves cold,
threaten the soul with infinite loss,
Grace that is greater, yes, grace untold,
points to the refuge, the mighty cross. 

3. Dark is the stain that we cannot hide,
what can avail to wash it away?
Look! there is flowing a crimson tide;
whiter than snow you may be today. 

4. Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace,
freely bestowed on all who believe;
all who are longing to see His face,
will you this moment His grace receive? 


A Blessed Sunday to you.

Ginny - No, I don't know the names of the donkeys.  I didn't see the two horses out yesterday but I do know the names of them,  Faith and Grace.

A Nice Walk around the Farm Loop

Sunrise 6:25
I had such a nice walk around the farm loop this morning.
It was a cloudy morning, with a temperature of 56 degrees and no wind.


At Farmer Bill's farm the donkeys came over to the fence when I called them.
They are very friendly.
I talked to them a bit, gave them a pet, and wished them a happy day before moving on.


 Just a bit down the road I saw Farmer Bill out walking his dog.

This farm house looks abandoned now.
Don't know the names of the people who lived there but used to see them and wave when I walked by.
I'll have to ask around town and see what's up.


This is the barn across the street.


Farther up the road is another farm.
Used to see milk cows there but today there were just bulls in the pasture.
They all started walking towards me and eventually ended up at the fence.  
This picture came out better then the one I took of them by the fence.


Also at the farm a cat meowed at me and I stopped to take a picture.


Along the route George drove passed and stopped to say hi.

Then back at the pond at the end of my walk I saw Rebecca and Leo.

It sure was a nice walk.

Six of us at the library this morning for stitching.
2 knitters
1 embroiderer  
and 3 of us crocheting.
I've learned the double crochet and still making my little sample piece.
Maybe some time this week I'll start making something.

Here's the Cable Knit Pillow I made.
If your want to see the pattern it is on my MadeByKaren blog.



I left the library with 2 books and 3 DVD's

Was hoping it would be nice out so I could go outside but it was raining so stayed in side and puttered about.

The pizza dough is rising now so Ken will be making pizza in just a little while.
Seems like Friday because we usually have our pizza then.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Sure hope you had a wonderful day.
HappyK 😊
