Ideal walking weather

I walked around the lake this morning and took a longer way home.  The temperature was in the mid 40's and sunny.  For me this is the ideal walking weather.  The air is cool, clear and fresh and I am warm but not hot. I only have to wear two layers and no hoods but just a ball cap. The ball cap keeps my hair from blowing all over the place.  I like to put my hair through the hole in back and have a pony tail. Sometimes I braid it. 
I didn't see the beaver but I saw a few trees like this that the beavers have cut down.

 I walked down by the water and saw this.  I'm thinking maybe that is what they are building.

 A little farther down down the path I saw this fisherman fishing and just happened to walk by as he caught a fish.  I watched him take the fish off the hook and throw it back in.

Around the other side of the lake there are a bunch of cherry trees and they have started to bud and bloom. 

A saw a couple deer just standing in the woods.  They blended in so well with the trees that I didn't see them at first.  They must have thought they were well hidden because they didn't move a muscle.  I just continued on my way and let them think that.
Just a few people out which was surprising since the weather was just perfect.  I wonder how many people live near my lake and have NEVER walked around it.  Kind of sad to think of that.
I think some people wear way too much perfume.  I was walking across a parking lot and a lady was walking to her car quite a good distance away from me and I could smell her perfume all that way away and it did not smell good.   I don't wear any perfume - Ken doesn't like it - he always tells me I smell good.  :-)
Such a nice walking morning I had to tell myself to go home.
I walked 7.4 miles.

Sunrise 7:16

Sunset 7:16

Look at that.  Times are the same today.

Last night after supper we went to the book store to look around and I always like looking in the bargain book section.  I found one last night that looked interesting so I bought it -  The Illustrated Guide to the Bible.  I'm going to read some of it each morning during my Bible reading time.

Another day at home for me which I don't mind.  Did more house stuff.  A nice sunny day to hang the clothes on the line to dry.  

I tried sitting outside a little earlier but there was a breeze it felt a bit chilly to me to just sit out there and knit, so I did some knitting inside.  I am happy to say that I've gotten the hang of the scarf and it's coming along quite well.  A picture of what I've done so far is  HERE.
Tomorrow the temperature is supposed to be in the 70's so I'm saving tomorrow to wash my car.

On this Thursday, I hope you had much to smile about.
A smile from me to you.

Happyone :-)

May your blessings outnumber

the shamrocks that grow,

and may trouble avoid you

Wherever you go.
