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

Fun Work and Cupcakes

This morning the temperature was 59 degrees when I left
and it wasn't long before the sun came over the mountain.
 Walked into town today.
Went straight through town and to the ball park loop
and walked once around there.
Then it was off to the old house for a pit stop.
Back through town to the first cemetery and made a loop
around there too and then walked back home.

Lisa was out running and I noticed her husband out a couple times too.
He's a walker though.

One of our neighbors has this sign in his front yard.
Adam, thought you and Daisy would get a kick out of the last town. 😊

Walked 6.2 miles

Right after breakfast we took our trash to the collection station
on Bumblebee Road.   
Made a stop at the library to pick up a book that was on hold for me
and also the next book club selection.

Back home we got to work around the yard.
I spent the day on my front yard project of picking up dead fall,
cutting down small trees and making my natural fence.
Ken came along with the chain saw and cut a few trees down 
that I couldn't get with my cutters.  
I still have a few more days worth of work just on that one
section.  But it is fun work.

Took a break for lunch and I quick made 2 dozen cupcakes for
church tomorrow.  Then back outside to work.
Later after supper I made the icing for the cupcakes and here
they are sitting in the cupcake tote that I bought yesterday.
It's been a long busy day and I'm ready to sit back and do a little
reading, watch a Netflix, make some squares and have ice cream.

Hope your day was a happy one.
Life is Good

Your new cupcake carrier looks ideal for getting them to their destination in one piece. The cupcakes look tasty too.

The cupcakes look yummy! Quite a busy day you had. I didn't realize you were close enough to town to walk there. Very handy. Have a great day.
