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

Rabbits

I sure do see a lot of these little things all over the place.
There must be more rabbits than people in the this town.

This morning on my walk it was 62 degrees with clouds and sun.  

I walked through town and up Sale Barn a little ways and then back to town around the two cemeteries and a loop around town.  

These pretty yellow wild flowers are growing along the side of the road.  Don't know that they are though.




 I've taken a picture of this scene a few times before.  Every time I walk down this way by the Drane house I stop here for a minute or two.  It is nice to just enjoy looking at the pretty scene and listen to the birds.  




A 5 mile walk today because I had to be home no later then 8:00.

Had to be home because we left when I got back to go to an outside estate auction over in West Virginia.  About an hour and half from here.  They had a lot of stuff that we really liked but things went for about double the amount of money that we wanted to spend.  Everything was in good condition and clean too.  Though we didn't buy anything we had a nice time looking around and watching the auction.  

We were back home about 2:30.  I took the day off from weeding but I did mow the lawn.

When that was done we sat on the front porch and had an ice cream cone.  I had chocolate and Ken had vanilla. : )  

Now it's time to think about supper.
Hope your day was a happy one.

You know the old saying, "nothing multiplies like rabbits." Guess it must be true where you are. We rarely see rabbits in our yard in Arizona, but we do have a lot of little lizards and they are fun to watch scramble around. The auction sounds fun. I do love your pictures today. Enjoy the rest of the weekend. Have a restful Sabbath.

I love rabbits. We owned a couple Parsley & Dillon. They lived to a fair old age, eight and ten.
The yellow wild flowers are very pretty.
Happy Sunday :)

I know what you mean! So many bunnies!
I'm sorry the auction was pricey.
Happy Sunday, Karen!

I see one rabbit in my back yard from time to time. Always love your walks. It's too bad that the auction was pricey. Maybe next time. Have a great day.

Hi Happyone, Some comments for recent posts: July 16, Love that third photo of the spot by the Drane house where you stop for a minute or two of reflection.

We used to have the little lizards when we lived in Puerto Rico. : )

I aim to enjoy every one. : ) I like the bunnies too unless they are eating in my garden.

I knew someone who had a pet rabbit. They kept it in their house and it learned to use the kitty litter!
Cute names for you rabbits. : )

happyone said...

It was still nice to be at the auction and we didn't have to spend any money. A cheap morning out. : )

happyone said...

I try to enjoy each one. : )

Ours were house rabbits and used a litter tray until we had a new whippet who wouldn't give them a minutes peace. They then went to live in the garden and to be honest they much preferred it.
Happy Sunday :)

Thanks for walking along 'with' me. : )
Auction was fun anyway. A cheap morning outing. : )

Adam said...
