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

Morning Skies and the fence

52 degrees F this morning, pretty calm, and a mix of sun and clouds.
A quiet Saturday morning walk.
Very few deer, but did hear lots of birds chirping,
and a couple woodpeckers.

Walked to town and went to the post office.
Dropped a Netflix down the slot.

Walked a loop around town and then up the hill to the
cemetery and then down to see the cows by the barn near the Drane house.

Back to the main road and home again.

What cool looking clouds this morning.  
I kept looking up and snapping pictures.

Morning moon 




This is my favorite one today.
Unusual looking with all the clouds in a row like that.
Walked my usual 6 miles.
👟     👟
Inside this morning doing this and that and then late morning
I went outside and started working on picking up the sticks and limbs
and making the natural fence.
Worked till lunch and then went back out after lunch.
Ken snapped this picture of me working on the fence.
A couple more pictures of the fence.
Looking up the property line.
Looking down the property line.
That pretty much took care of the whole day for me.
Ken made a couple of narrow shelves for me to put in the broom/cleaning 
closet.  Will take a picture once they are up.  

Such a pretty day, sunny and in the low 60's, great outside working weather.

A happy day to you.

Elaine - I've made 15 weave-it afghans with just over 300 squares in each. One bedspread of 500 squares and another huge bedspread with 825 squares.  
Since I've been making them for Babies for Blankets with the church ladies I've made
34 baby ones.  They are only 70 squares.  That comes to roughly 8,205 squares.

Happy Easter to you and your family.

God bless you all.

My favorite is number three...just something about it. Did you purposely leave a door in your fence? Perhaps some critter is also doing some building. A blessed Easter to you and Ken!

Our weather lately was rainy.

I knew it was a lot of blankets. Even more impressive when you are counting the squares. Nice looking sense. Reminds me of Gettysburg - and their stone fences out on Big and Little Round Top.
