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

Baking Cookies


This morning the temperature was 33 degrees and it was sunny for walking.
There was no wind. 

First walked around the cemetery on the hill a few times.


Then I walked to the ball park and made a couple of laps around that loop.

These 4 chickens were the only ones out of the coop.
A little frost didn't bother them.


Continued walking around town up and down all the streets and ended up by walking around the other cemetery.
No fishing today, saving the fish for the fish with a cop day.


By the time I left to go home the temperature was 37 and the sky was clear and a bright blue.

Glad we covered our little vegetable garden because we did have a little frost.
One bean plant doesn't look so good but the others are all fine.
Hoping the bean plant perks up.

This week at church is the Missions Conference which ends on Sunday with an  international dinner.
We make different dishes from the countries where the visiting missionaries are from.
I was asked to make Polvorsas cookies from Guatemala and was given the recipe and made them today. Recipe and pictures on Karen's Kitchen.

I didn't buy a phone case at the phone store because you can get on one line MUCH cheaper.
Ordered one and it was supposed to arrive yesterday but never did, now it is supposed to be here today but still waiting.

Almost pizza time. ๐Ÿ•

That's all I have for today.
Hope you had a happy day.
Thanks for stopping by.

Pot Holder

Walked under cloudy skies this morning and the temperature was 44 degrees and a little windy.


Walked around the cemetery up the hill a few times.
Saw a fellow walker up there, a man who I've never seen before.
We said good morning as we passed.
Maybe I'll see him again and after a while I will have another walking friend. ๐Ÿ™‚

Continued walking and stopped at the Jeep to pick up a DVD and went to the library and put it down the drop.
Then over to the ball park to walk that loop.
Through town and down the main road towards home a while before heading back to town.

Walked around the other cemetery which is at the end of the road on the left.

I'm coming to the end of my walk here.  That's my Jeep in the parking lot.


The sun made an appearance for about 10 minutes.
Not long but still nice to see.

Well, gospel track month is over and we all ended up giving out just over 10,000 of them.
Happy to say us ladies WON so in two weeks the men will be serving us a spaghetti dinner.

One of the little girls from church made me this pot holder.  
I will add it to my collection.
I love it!!


We went to the library to pick up a couple of books and dvd's all for Ken.
He picked out the dvd's but I'll watch them too.
I didn't get anything because I'm reading a couple books already.

Another new bird at the feeder today, a Baltimore Oriole.

A chance of frost tonight so we will have to cover the vegetables we planted.

Happy Thursday to you.
Thanks for coming by.
