The front wall

✿     ✿     ✿     ✿

The temperature was 70 degrees this morning when I left on my walk.  It was a cloudy morning and very windy.

I walked the Farm Loop but went in the opposite direction that I usually walk.

Over at Farmer Bill's place the Amish were there working on putting up another green house.

I was walking along and I saw a family of killdeers running along the side of the road.  Dad must have been in the lead, then three of the tiniest little killdeers were running along too, followed by Mom.   It was the cutest thing.  When the adults noticed me they ran the little ones in the weeds on the side of the road, then they ran ahead of me and spread their wings out like they were hurt.  They did that a few times and then finally flew back to see the little ones.  They were all moving too fast to get a picture.

I also walked through town and made one loop around the cemeteries and the ball park and then home.

Walked a little farther than usual to make up for no walk yesterday.
Walked 7.2 miles.

While I was walking Ken was out buying the lumber for the front wall of the cabin and after breakfast we headed up to HT to build it.

We had a couple of thunder storms while we were there and here we sit under the floor of the cabin waiting for one of them to pass.

We finished building the front wall but didn't get to stand it up because of the rain.  What you see standing up is just some bracing so that when we go to stand the wall up it doesn't go over too far and just fall off the building.  This is how we left it today.

I'm baking some chocolate chip cookies now as I'm tying this.  I'm running back and forth as they come out of the oven.  I'm making them for the kids for Bible Time at our church which is the second week in July.  Getting started now because I have to make 20 dozen.  I'll just freeze them all. I'm not the only one making that many either.  A dozen and a half of these I'm baking tonight will go to our fried Ronnie for his birthday.  He had some of the ones I made for Sunday School this past Sunday and he ate some and told me how much he liked them.  I told him I'd make some for his birthday when it came around.  He laughed and said, "Actually my birthday is Tuesday."  So I'll give him them tomorrow at church.  I'm sure he will be surprised that I'm actually making them.  : )

Well that's about it for today. 
Hope your day was a happy one.
happyone : )

A hug is a handshake from the heart.
