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

Cable Stitch


A cloudy morning, 55 degrees, and windy, for walking.
Driving to town I counted 9 deer along my road.
I'm sure there were more but that is all I counted in the dark.
Sunrise 7:02

Walked around the block in town till it was light enough to walk around the cemeteries and walked around both of them.
Made a side trip over to the long barn 


to see the cows.




From there I walked through town over to the ball park and walked around there a couple of times.

Then back through town to the Jeep.

The same fisherman was at the pond again.  
He's already there when I get to town and still there when I leave.

🙂    ☁️    🥾    🐄

Did the usual work around the house in the morning.

Afternoon I did a little knitting.
Making a simple cable stitch pillow.


I also started another diamond art card of a flower.
Will be finishing that later this evening.

It's been a delightful day. 
Hope yours was too and thanks so much for stopping by.

A little walking adventure

This morning it was 51 degrees, cloudy, and windy when I went walking.
My usual walk again this morning.
All around town, the ball park and both cemeteries.
Only one fisherman at the pond.
Hardly ever fiind coins anymore but found a penny this time.  
Only two pennies so far this YEAR!!

Yesterday, my Sunday morning walk was a bit of an adventure.
I walked around the industrial park and one of the roads dead ends by woods with what looks like an old road.
I was pretty sure if I followed it, it would come out behind the ball park.
Always wanted to see if that was true.
This seemed like a good time of the year to walk there before summer when it is so over grown.
So started walking there.



I followed it a ways and it kind of petered out.


Kept walking in the direction I thought the ball park would be.
Passed by this old foundation.


I finally got behind the ball park but I was on the wrong side of the brook and couldn't find any place to cross the water.
So I walked along the water and finally ended up in someones yard.
They had a nice little pond of their own.


Walked around the left side of the pond to a driveway which took me out to the road down from the post office.

It was a nice walk but one I won't do again. 🙂

Monday again so time to get those sheets washed and get the weekly house cleaning started.

This afternoon we went out to do a couple of errands.
One a stop at the library - dropped off a book and picked up a DVD.
We've been watching a series called 800 Words which is pretty good.

Started reading the first book in a mystery series written by Rhys Bowen called Murphy's Law. 

That's all I have for today.
Hoping your Monday is a happy one and thanks for visiting.
HappyK🙂
