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

Cardboard Cutout

Another clear sky this morning with lots of stars.
36 degrees so a bit warmer than yesterday.
No wind again and sunrise was 7:36

Walked around town till it was lightish.
The 3 burned out street light have all be replaced.
Then walked around both cemeteries, the ball park and the new road.

Doesn't that look like a real person standing there?
It is a cardboard cutout of Phil, the Wiggle Man.


The parts of the corn that were left behind after it was cut down
has been turned into bales.


No one else out walking that saw this morning.

I've thought of another reason why it's good that I walk 
first thing in the morning.
When I wake up I'm raring to go and wide awake.
Ken on the other hand likes to wake up slowly.
So when I'm up and out he gets to wake up in his own time.
By the time I get home he's ready to face me ๐Ÿ˜€
and we have breakfast.

๐Ÿ™‚   ๐Ÿ   ๐Ÿงข  

Left for church right after breakfast for day two of Fingerprints.
Only 10 of us there this time but still got a lot done.
The two days we put together and boxed up 8,755 Roman's books.
  We only had to do 6,000 to stay on track for the yearly goal of 100,000.
Now we are a few thousand ahead.

That's where we've been all day
and like yesterday it is nice to be home and have a relaxing evening.

Thanks again for stopping by.
Hope you had a wonderful day.
HappyK๐Ÿ™‚❤️

Fingerprints

Coldest morning so far at 30 degrees.
Another clear morning with lots of stars out.
It was calm and sunrise was at 7:35. 

Walked all over town and then walked over to the industrial park.
It was lightish out by the time I got there 
and I walked all around in there.


A pretty Fall tree.


 Walked back through town and to the pond where my walk ended.
Rebecca was out walking Leo.

My legs were a bit cold so I'll have to start wearing
my long underwear on these cold mornings.  

๐Ÿ™‚    ๐Ÿ    ๐Ÿ‚

Made fried bread (French toast) for breakfast this morning.
Also made some more Oat Bran Muffins this time putting
in chocolate chips.

Then it was time to head out to church for a day of 
And that's where we've been all day.
A small turn out this time only 12 of us.
Hopefully tomorrow more people will show up.
Home now for some relaxation.


Thanks for coming by.
Hope you had a wonderful day

Ginny - It's not that our church is big it's that we have a small community. ๐Ÿ™‚
