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

Stone

Next years Dandelions 
✿     ✿     ✿     ✿
Back to warmer temperatures this morning, it was 50 degrees with a mix of sun and clouds when I walked.

 First walked over to the post office and put some mail down the slot, then walked around town.  There is a big old house for sale right on the main street right at the edge of town and it is empty so I walked around the house looking in the windows.  It's a nice house and I wouldn't mind living there, but I have no intentions of moving again. : )

Walked around the cemeteries and the ball park loop.  I pass the town pond just about every day when I walk and once in a while when the grass isn't wet I'll walk around the pond and that is what I did today.  It's just a small pond and I went around it twice.
I didn't see any one else out walking.
Kept my eye out for raccoons hoping I didn't see any.  There have been two people in my town that have been bit by raccoons that have rabies.

I found another coin today, a dime.
Walked 5.4 miles.

Another day spent working at Happy Trails.  Today we went with the now fixed trailer and got three more loads of stone and spread them all out.  It is so much easier walking up and down to the building site with the stone instead of walking over rocks and tree roots and holes.
We are glad to be done hauling stone and look forward to the next step.  What is that you ask?  Check back often to see what we've been up to. : )
We got back down to the house at 5:30 and didn't feel like cooking, so after getting cleaned up we went to Annie's Kitchen right here in town for supper.
Had some great weather for working - sunny with a few clouds thrown in and about 70 degrees.

Tonight will be the usual evening at home, which is a good thing. : )

It's been a good day.
Life is Good.
Hope your day was a happy one.

If you are patient in a moment of anger,
you will escape one hundred days of sorrow.

CatLover - the sunflower seeds I planted are Girasol Mammoth.  Package says they grow up to 12 feet.  : )

Kim -  We live in the most western part of MD you can get.  What part of PA did Brett go to?

The bees will love next year's dandelions! You deserved to eat out tonight after that hard work today!

I am so tempted to buy that house that is for sale in your town ;-) ....you make it sound like "heaven on earth." Enjoy your weekend.

Good morning, I enjoy seeing the HT in progress. We had a chilly morning but it warmed up later in the day. The pond looks pretty. Have a happy weekend!

Thanks for answering my question about the sunflowers. I will look for them.

There was a lady here in Richmond a month or so ago that was attacked by a rabid raccoon. she had to strangle it with her bare hands, which much have been horrible.
