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

Red Leaves


 Started my walk going down the road I just drove up.
Went about a half mile, turned around and walked back to town.
Next up was both of the cemeteries.
Rebecca was walking there too.
Continued walking over to the ball park and around there.
Back around town and to the parking lot and my Jeep.
Anna and Mark were just getting to the pond as I was
getting in the Jeep.
Anna ran over to say hi. ๐Ÿ˜Š

The temperature was 62 degrees with sun and clouds.
No wind to speak of.

We went to the Walmart for food shopping right after breakfast.
We didn't need much so we went to the one in Oakland.
Had to stop at Shop and Save on the way home to get milk because
Walmart didn't have any.  

Came home put things away and then headed out again for my
book club meeting.
Since it was such a pretty day we met outside again in the park.
There were only 6 of us there and no one really liked the book
all that much.
We ended up talking about everything else except the book!
The book was
 The Museum of Lost Quilts by Jennifer Chiaverini.

I stopped by the library before coming home to pick up a book
I had on reserve and Ken's 2 DVD's.

Started reading a Ken Follett book, A Place Called Freedom.
Liked it right away.

Having our homemade pizza today instead of Friday because
tomorrow we are going out for fish and chips with David and Liz!!

Hope you had a wonderful Thursday.
Thanks for visiting.

Muffins

Made my way over to the library and put a
DVD and book down the drop.

Continued through town and up and down some side streets
as I walked over to the industrial park and walked around there.


Then back through town to the pond.


Walk wasn't quite finished yet so went around one of the cemeteries
a couple of times.

Didn't see anyone else out today.

It was a cloudy morning, 62 degrees, and no wind.
Sunrise 6:27

It looked like rain but it wasn't supposed to so I did a couple
of loads of laundry.
Glad I did because the sun eventually came out.

I had a few bananas that were no longer in prime eating condition
so I made some
Banana Nut Muffins.


Ken is working on a new section on his train layout.
Come winter on those days I have to walk in the basement
there will be some new pictures to post!! ๐Ÿš‚

We picked some really nice tomatoes out of the garden
and will be having BLT's for supper in just a little. while.

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

Ginny - The spices in the new jars are already in alphabetical order.  Just didn't have enough new jars for all the spices.  Other spices there are more than would fit in a jar.
