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

Monday

Another warm morning with a temperature of 62 degrees and very windy.
On the way to town saw 4 deer this time.
I first see their shining eyes in the headlights of the car.
I was at town and stated walking at 6:30.
Sunrise was at 7:43 and it was cloudy.
The last mile of walking it started drizzling but I only got a bit damp.

Walked all around town under the street lights till it was kind of light.
Dropped off a couple of DVD's at the library book drop.
Continued walking around both of the cemeteries and the ball park.




Saw Joy out walking this morning.
Was nice to see her out again - has been a while so we stopped for a chat.

A woman was out walking her dog but didn't come near me.
Don't think the dog was friendly and she was avoiding people.

🙂         ☁️         🚶‍♀️         🌧

Time for getting the usual house chores started for the week during the morning.

Liz is in Florida visiting her daughter so we took David out for lunch at Brenda's for pizza.

It was a rainy afternoon and a good time to finish reading a book.

That's about it for today.
Happy Monday and thanks for stopping by.

Tom - Yes, that does look like a garage at the modular home but it is a window still covered up.  A garage is going to be built at the back of the lot.  Looks to me like it will be a tight squeeze back there.  Well, at least they won't have much grass to mow. :)

John - We sang In Times Like These yesterday in church. :)

I love the light and color in your first photo.
It was cold here today, it even snowed a little and it's supposed to snow quite a bit tomorrow!
