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

Quiet morning walk

It was 50 degrees this morning but cloudy and pretty windy out during my walk. I walked the path to the school and then around in that neighborhood. Then picked up the other path and headed back home. I saw a group of seven deer and then two more. A quiet morning, only saw two other women, one at the start of my walk and one at the end, one walking, the other running. The sun was out by the time I got home.
I stopped to take this picture of the Wisteria climbing up the tree. The sun wasn't out yet so the picture isn't all that great. I read that Wisteria is a climbing shrub of the pea family, native to North America and eastern Asia.
The morning sky.
Walked a little under 6 miles at 5.7.
Almost Secret Sister time. I'll post about it later.
Have a great Saturday.
Happone :-)

That morning sky is beautiful. When I lived in South Carolina one of my walks took me along a waterway with wisteria-covered trees on the opposite bank. It was gorgeous this time of the year.

I love wisteria. We'll be mulching today!

What a splendid sky. Raining right now in Denver, but I did manage a 5 mile walk earlier. (Walked to and from brunch - does that count?)

Pretty pictures from your walk today. There is a wisteria vine growing all over a vacant lot near us. When we walk by it smells heavenly right now and also looks very pretty. I hope they never build on that lot.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Beautiful wisteria. I'm waiting for mine to start blooming.
