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

Farm Loop Walk

 

I walked under cloudy skies this morning.
The temperature was 68 degrees..

Walked around the farm loop this time.
Just off the main road here.


Coming up to Farmer Bill's place.


This is looking back at the barn from the other side 
and from another road I turned up.


I see he has planted some Indian Corn.


When I got to the school I walked on the path behind there
and then down the hill and back to the pond parking lot.

Quiet around the loop and didn't see anyone else out.
This is a nice loop to walk because I don't have to do any
back tracking.

I got the bedroom windows washed inside and out first thing after breakfast.
I wanted to get it over with.
A little bit later
 Ken helped me with the kitchen windows.
He washed the outside on the ladder.

I was going to read a chapter in my book and then knit
but kept reading and never did any knitting.
Read right up to the time I had to make the pizza dough.

Hope your Friday was delightful.
Thanks for stopping by.

Sunny

 Mostly sunny this morning for walking with a few
clouds around.
Temperature was 67 and very calm.


Walked around both of the cemeteries.
Then stopped at the Jeep to pick up a couple of books
and a card to mail.
Headed over to the post office and mailed the card and
then to the library and dropped off the books.

Continued walking through town up and down side streets
and over to the ball park.
Walked around there and then back to the Jeep.

Rebecca was out walking Leo.
Anna and her dad Mark were out too.
Anna told me that yesterday they ordered her birthday cake.
Blue is her favorite color so she got lots of blue roses on the cake.
She was so excited. ๐Ÿ™‚๐ŸŽ‚
Her birthday is next week.

I got some more windows washed this morning.
The French door windows, the dining room, bathroom,
and the garage pedestrian door.
That's all I could without the ladder.
Need the latter for the outside of the kitchen and bedroom windows.
Hopefully I'll get them done tomorrow.

I had a pair of slippers that I knitted and just needed to sew
them up so did that today.

Sat out on the porch again and Ken joined me for a while.

It's been a good day.
Thanks for stopping by.
Hope you had a wonderful day.
