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

House for sale

 

I get up in the dark now and it is just getting light when I get to town.
Started walking this morning at 6:20.
It was 66 degrees and cloudy.
Sunrise 6:39
Morning Walk Step 12,526

Walked my usual walk all around town, the ball park, and both cemeteries.

John was out walking Prim and I saw them around the ball park loop.
Also the man who runs laps was there.

Noticed a house in town was just put up for sale.
This is across the street from the lower cemetery which is behind me.


The property goes from street across to the other street.
This picture taken from the other street and is the street going up to the cemetery on the hill and the pond is behind me.



I hope someone buys it and renovates it instead of demolishing it and putting up a couple of new houses!!!

I took a picture of the inside of the new house being built.
This is taken looking in the front picture window.
As you can see the walls for the rooms have not been built yet but the lumber is sitting there.


Saw a couple of skunks around town and a couple of rabbits.

☁️         ðŸš¶‍♀️         ðŸ™‚

We went to the DG Market and picked up a few things.

Would have liked to go the library to knit with the ladies, but everyone had something else to do this week.

Took a little walk up the lane this afternoon.
Happy Trails is along the right of the lane.
Sometimes in the winter when I can't walk in town because of the snow I walk up and down this lane.


Happy Saturday and thanks for stopping by.

Hi Karen!
What a nice long walk you took this morning! I'm excited for September.

The house for sale looks like a lovely old homestead. I hope someone renovates it as well...

This house is much bigger than it appeared from the first photo of it in the distance! The buttons are so cheerful!!

My favourite picture is the one with the lane that disappears as it turns the corner. It's just the kind of country road I love to find.
Have a wonderful Sunday.

That's a nice big lot that house is on. It doesn't look bad from the outside. I sure would love that front porch. Or maybe that's the back. Either way a covered area to sit outside would be so nice.

Hello,
The house for sale has a big lot, that is a lot of grass to cut.
I like the photo and scene with the lane where you walk in the winter.
Happy Sunday, have a wonderful week!

Hi Karen. That house that is for sale looks like a bit one, but the hard is huge. The new house looks pretty small. Last week, I read that builders are making houses smaller again because houses are becoming so unaffordable. That is sure the case around here in Utah. I hope you are having a good weekend. See you again soon!

That's a nice long piece of property with that house. They'll need a riding lawn mower. I like the lane you can walk on. Those buttons are a nice color.

That's a nice looking lane to walk on.

Stay awau from the skunks of no one will want you around. How much is the hose selling for?

Debby said...

That is a beautiful house. One way to find out is how are they listing it. If they don't show the inside of the home and only the property, then they are mainly listing the property and not the house which would indicate a teardown. That would be such a shame. I hope that is not the case. The land is beautiful.

The buttons you show are a beautiful colour.

All the best Jan

That is a great piece of land the house for sale is sitting on!

Just as long as the skunks weren't startled.
