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

Wednesday

Took this picture of the morning moon from the end of
my driveway as I left for town for my walk.


20 degrees this morning, calm, and sunny.
Sunrise 6:38
Walking Steps 12,905

Walked around both cemeteries and the ball park.
Up and down the main street in town and the side streets.
Then around the lower cemetery once again.

Didn't see anyone else out again.
It's been quite a few days that I haven't seen Phil the Wiggle Man
nor his car parked at the dealership.
Very unusual. 

My don't I have long legs!!


My shadow reflection when I stopped to look at the pond.


A beautiful blue sky which made me forget that it was only 20 degrees!

Did my usual morning chores around the house.

The afternoon found me reading and I read until I finished the
book I started yesterday.
It was a page turner for me and I loved it.
I give it 5 stars.
The Children's Blizzard 
by Melanie Benjamin



Did a little knitting too before supper.

Thanks for popping in.
Happy Wednesday

Wow, that book sounds interesting. I think I may have read another book about that blizzard. History can be so fascinating. I enjoy hearing about the books you are reading. Another good day for you! See you tomorrow!

I hope the wiggle man shows up soon.

That cover of Blizzard reminded me of one of Enid Blyton's books.

The sky is so blue! Surely, you'll solve the mystery of Wiggleman. I'm voting that he's on a Caribbean vacation.
I have read about that blizzard...very moving story, disturbing, too.
You have long legs because you walk so much! 😁

Is that the moon, or was someone playing golf?

God bless.

Good shadow shots!

Looks like a good book. Your first beautiful photo reminds me of that very old song by Kate Smith "When The Moon Comes Over The Mountain".

Fun stick shadows of you! That book looks like you'd need to know the ending. Sounds heart wrenching.
