This morning I walked under cloudy skies with a
temperature of 32 degrees.
No wind to speak of.
The sun popped out too for just a little while.
Another walk to town and around town a bit before
heading up to the cemetery on top of the hill.
After walking around there I went down to see
the bulls by the barn across from the Drane house
but none were there.
It was so muddy I thought Farmer Marvin must have moved them
out to the pasture.
Haven't taken any pictures of the Drane house lately
so here's a couple.
Walked back up to the cemetery around it once more and then
headed back home again.
I've turned off the main road here and walking toward my
street. A couple of wild turkeys crossed the street and then
flew away but if you look closely on the right side of the road,
almost in the center of the picture.
you may be able to see one who didn't fly off as quickly.
Walked 6.2 miles
☁️ 🙂 ⛅️
Tuesday, so off to the Shop and Save for the weekly food shopping.
Once again I waited in the car.
But I think next week I just might go inside with Ken.
I may have a new face mask by then! 🙂
I've been having a bit of a craving for a cupcake lately.
So this afternoon I made some German Chocolate ones.
(just from a box)
(just from a box)
Put icing on and decorated 12 of them
A couple cupcakes will be my snack this evening instead of ice cream.
That's all for today.
Thanks for stopping by.
Hope your day was a healthy and happy on.

Cathy - I'm keeping the cross stitch for myself this time. When I get done with this one I have another one picked out and that will be a gift. The reason I'm posting my progress is so that I will keep at it till it's completed. 😃
Kim - Our frost date here is May 31. Can't put any flowers out till June 1.

...the Drane House looks fabulous, something that I would enjoy seeing in person! I sure was cold and wind here, with a few stray snowflakes, I sure wish that it would warm up a bit. Take care and stay well, Karen.
Those cupcakes look good. Enjoy them tonight.
Mmmmmm... cupcakes and they're chocolate! They look delicious!
Things are springing up nicely in your neighborhood. Looks like you have plenty of cupcakes to share so pass one over. :)
I saw the turkey even before I expanded the view. But oh, that photo has such a lovely view! Nice to see the Drane House...I hope the bulls are back...I always enjoy seeing them.
It is pretty wonderful that, when you have a hankering for something, you just go ahead and bake it. I don't do that ever. I must have people coming and then they still might find nothing. So sense of willpower whatsoever do I have. If two tasted good, four would be better, 😁 I saw that turkey. In fact, Terribly windy here today.
Your cupcakes look very pretty. I rarely ever make cake or cupcakes from scratch. A mix is so much easier and good too. Are you a tea drinker? Or coffee? Or maybe just plain old water? You need something to go along with the cupcakes.
Oh yes I understand the accountability on the crosstitch lol! Oh and have you ever had german chocolate ice cream? My favorite and can only get it at Baskin Robbins in the fall, it least in my neck of the woods.
The grounds look so well kept around the Drane House. I see on past that the fields appear ready for planting. Oh, how I would like one of those delicious looking cupcakes, but I don't eat many sweets. :~/
Hi Karen- that is an interesting full day for you...you'l have to sneak up on those Wild Turkeys next time to get a closer picture. WE did a walk today- just 20 minutes- nothing like your 6 miles. Best Wishes. KEV.
I like cup cakes !!!
God bless.
I always enjoy your pictures of the Drane house..thank you!
I can see one of the turkeys.
I do love seeing turkeys in the wild.
Cupcakes will be a nice change of pace for your nightly treat.
Have a happy day.

Love the pictures of the Drane House. Thanks for sharing!
Yum.
Happy looking cupcakes, Karen!
I like the Drane House. I would love to pop inside and take a look.
I love that you are a walker and take photos of your walks. I do the same thing. I live in the mountains so in winter with snow I don't get out that much but ...when the weather warms up I'm usually out walking. I stopped by from another blogger's blog list and liked the name so ...glad I did.
I would probably be happy living in the Drane House. Your cup cakes look delicious and are so pretty. Oh, I love your cross stitch. I used to do that years ago but have forgotten how.
Yum!
Those cupcakes look good.
All the best Jan
Nice photo of the Drane House. Those cupcakes look good.
Enjoy your evening!
