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

Cloudy walk and a rainy day

 Another cloudy morning for walking and 69 degrees and calm.
Sunrise 6:04
Those minutes are sneaking up later each morning.

Walked around both of the cemeteries and the ball park a 
few times each.
Then up and down the side streets on the left side of town.
I stayed walking all to the left side of town and never even made
it along the main road.


Went around the long barn.


The pond behind the Drane house.


It was quieter around town than usual, more like a Sat.
I introduced myself to a woman I've seen walking around lately.
Her name is Kerry.
She told me her and a friend have a weekly challenge of who walks
the most each week.
Whoever loses pays the other $5.


☁️    🌼    ☁️    😊

No sun and it felt like rain so it wasn't a good day for laundry.
It ended up being a rainy day and a high of 72 degrees.

Got the rest of my house cleaning done for the week.
It was one of those lazy afternoons that I just read and knitted.

Even though we made pizza for supper on Monday we made it again today.

That's all I have for today.
Hope you enjoyed your Friday.
Thanks for stopping by.

Lost and found

Though it was a pretty warm morning for here at 72 degrees
it was cloudy and windy so that kept it cool.
 Only one deer did I see on the way to town this morning.

I had a very random walk all over town without ever
walking around the cemeteries or ball park.

In the parking lot of the DG Market I found a nickel 
and by the dentist a penny.
In the old days I could have bought a candy bar.🙂

I saw Rebecca walking and another woman walking 
but too far away to say hi.

On my way here to the DG.
It's about a 1/2 mile down the road.


I've always like the look of this house.


A close up of the front door.


At times I thought for sure it would rain but it never did.

Blankets for Babies morning at church so left after breakfast for that.
We make blankets for seniors now too.
Ken had work to do on the cutter which we use for Fingerprints.
To save an extra trip to church we went together.
There were 13 of us there today.

Ken couldn't find a part that he NEEDED to fix the cutter.
He thought he had put it in his tool bag, but though he looked through
it a few times couldn't find it.
He mentioned it to the ladies and we all prayed that he'd find it.
He checkout out the tool bag one more time and low and behold 
there was the part in a side pocket of the tool bag 
that he didn't even realize was there.
God answers small prayers too.  🙏🏻😊

David and Liz came over after work and we had the chili for supper.
🎈 Today is David's birthday. 🎈
Liz baked him a cheesecake 🎂 so we had birthday cake too.
Hard to believe he turned 53 today!!!

We've had periods of rain and sun all afternoon.

That's all I have for today.
Hope you had a wonderful day.
Thank's to all of you who take the time to read my blog each day.
A special thanks to all who leave comments.
