Tornado

Well here I am again back to blogging.

Just can't seem to give it up.

Guess blogging has become a part of my life just like walking is. 😊

During the last few weeks while walking I met another walker, Geraldine.

She lives along the main road and sees me walking all the time

and she said it made her get back to walking again.

I also met the woman who moved into the new white house in town

who sits outside and reads.

I introduced myself to her and invited her to the book club meeting

at the library.

Her name is Carmen.  

Saturday evening there was some excitement around here.

We had a tornado in our area.

Thank God it missed the town and only took down trees.

This is a video we got off the internet.

This is where it came through 1/2 mile down the road from our house.

This morning I was at town and walking at 6:30.

Sunrise was at 6:03 so its light out now when I start out.

The temperature was 42 at first and 49 when I got back to the Jeep.

A nice sunny walk. 

Had a very random walk all over town including both cemeteries and the ball park.

Was up at the long barn and Farmer Marvin was there talking to a couple

of new employees who help him on the farm.

He introduced me by saying

This is Karen who is trying to wear out another pair of shoes.😀

This was the day in town when you could put anything out at the curb

that you didn't want.  

I passed by Bill and Greg who were picking all the stuff up to bring to

the dump.  Asked if they had found any good junk.

They had a few things put aside.

Also stopped to talk to a fisherman at the pond.

He had caught 4 fish, 2 rainbow trout and

can't remember what kind the other two were.

Did the basic house chores and then I went outside.

I was cutting down lots of new sticker bushes that were growing

out by our little waterfall

while Ken was cutting up some trees that had fallen down.

After lunch we were back out again.

Lots of weeds grow under the stone arched bridge out back

and the drainage ditch that we made look like a little brook.

It is usually dry but when it rains it fills up with water.

We lined the whole bottom with rubber and are putting rocks

all along the bottom.

Very easy to find all the rocks we need right out back.

I'll take a picture when it is finished.

After we got tired of working we sat out on the porch.

Ken read and I knitted.

To continue the outside theme today we grilled hot dogs for supper

out back on the BBQ that Ken made out of rocks!!

I'll end this post today showing you where the Pink Peep 

is hanging out lately.

Hope your day was a happy one

and thanks so much for stopping by.
