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

Afternoon Walk

 Woke up this morning to a thunderstorm so didn't walk in the morning.
Though the storm stopped by 9:00 couldn't walk then either
because I had to leave for church at 9:00 to meet
the ladies for Blankets for Babies and Seniors.
Ken came along to church also because he had
to do some work on the cutter for Fingerprints.

Just a small crowd of us ladies today - only 5 of us,
but we still enjoyed each others company while getting
some work done.

We were back home for lunch and then in the afternoon
I got to go on my walk.
Though I'm glad I went walking it still is NOT the same as
my morning walk when I see the town wakeup.

First walked around both the cemeteries as usual.
The sky look amazing and was worth walking this
afternoon just to see it.


Next headed over to the library and drop off a DVD.
This time the library was open so I brought it inside.

Continued over to the ball park and around there and then 
around town till I had all my steps in.

It was VERY WINDY with sun and clouds and 72 degrees.

The ditch lilies are out and blooming all over town.



Thought maybe I'd see some other out walking at this time of day
but didn't see anyone.

Hope you had a wonderful day.
Thanks so much for coming by.

Path around the school

56 degrees and cloudy when I walked this morning
after early morning rain.
By the end of my walk the sun was out
and the rest of the day was bright and sunny. 

After walking around both of the cemeteries I stopped
at the post office to put a card in the mail.
It was one of the diamond cards I made.
I put a thin piece of bubble wrap in with the card
and put 2 stamps on it.

From there I walked up the hill to the school.


You can see the school in the distance here from the cemetery.


There is a path that goes around in back of the school 
and I walked around there.
Here's where it starts.


Continues around here and behind the dairy cow farm.



Back to the front of the school.


Here I'm headed back down the hill to town.


By the time I got back to the pond I had all my steps in.
I like to go AT LEAST 10,000 steps
Today my steps were 11,286

Didn't see anyone else out.
Pretty quiet around town today.

We headed out to the dump this morning and got rid of our trash.
Then stopped in at the Shop and Save to pick up a few things.
No trip to Walmart this week.

Went outside again this afternoon and did more weeding.
Then like yesterday sat out on the front porch and read.

Tonight when I go to church I'm taking each of the young men
who helped us load up the trailer,
some chocolate chip cookies that I baked yesterday
to say Thank You.

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