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

Friday

A little misty rain this morning when I started walking in town at 6:40 
but it soon ended and was just cloudy.
35 degrees with a bit of wind.
Sunrise 7:24

Walked up and down the main road in town and the side streets.
Also up behind our old house.
Then it was around the ball park loop a couple of times
and a few times around the cemeteries.

Farmer Marvin driving by his truck stopped to say hi
and Bill and Greg (town workers) were picking up branches around by the pond.

Still didn't see any of the regulars out walking.

At the end of my walk I realized I didn't take any pictures.
Guess nothing caught my eye.

Didn't go shopping earlier this week so we drove on over to Walmart
and did our shopping there. 

Did one last house chore (cleaning the shower) for this week
and then had my usual afternoon
of knitting, reading, and puzzling.
Also made a couple weave-it squares for this months baby blanket.

Nesting Dolls number 3
Have had these for many years too but don't remember where I got them.
The tallest one is 7 inches and the smallest is 3/4 of an inch.
This one also says made in china.



Smallest two


Happy Friday and thanks for popping in for a visit.

...this is a beauty set too, I'm afraid that most things are made in China.

Hi Karen. Rainy day here too. We have had a steady rain all day long and more is expected over the weekend. I love your nesting doll collection. I think nesting dolls are so very interesting. You have lots of fun and interesting things in your home. I hope you and Ken have a good weekend. See you again soon!

When I left work at 5, it was 40 degrees and the sun was shining! It gives me Spring fever. :)
Glad you saw a few people, even if it wasn't your walkers.
I'm enjoying the nesting dolls.

Do the same people still live in your old house? I hope they kept it up as lovely as you and Ken did . The nesting dolls are really pretty. I like the colors.

I don't know how many times I've set out with the intentions of getting pictures for blog posts and I get caught up in what I'm doing and forget to take them.
I like the set of nesting dolls. Such pretty colors.
