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

Bedford

 64 degrees again in town when I walked.
A cloudy foggy morning.

Saw a deer and her twin fawns on my way into town.

Walked around town, both cemeteries, and the ball park loop.



Ran into Sheila quite a few times all over town.
Carmen was out walking again too - maybe she will become a regular.

Pretty quiet in town this morning,
nothing going on.

9:30 this morning we left towing the church trailer with the Romans
books and went to Bedford, Pa to drop them off and pick up
the next pallet of scriptures to put together.
It's a nice ride on a country road once we get passed Cumberland.

Unloading the boxes we all put together.


Loading the next pallet into the trailer to be put together.


We unloaded and loaded ourselves this time because everyone was busy working.

The printing presses were running.


Took this picture of Johnny (he runs the press) next to the rolls of paper so you
could see how big they are!!


As we always do on the way back home we stopped at
Wendy's for lunch.

I baked a lemon cake with lemon icing when we got home.
It will be a change from our ice cream snack this evening.

It's been a good day and for that I am thankful.
Happy Tuesday
Thanks for stopping by
happyone🙂

Deb - No, I don't have any of my Golden Books from when I was a kid.  I had a quite a few of them and asked my mom to save them for me but when we went overseas she gave them all away. :( I gave the ones my kids had to my daughter Debbi because she loved them.  The ones I have now I bought.  I have the first 12 golden books they made.  Not the original ones though.  I should do a post about them.

I can hear the silence and quiet on your walk photos!!! Wow those are the longest paper rolls I have ever seen! So how was the lemon cake and frosting? Sounds so good!

I always love seeing the Drane house. Takes me back in time.
You had a productive day. Those rolls of paper are huge!

...that looks like an efficient printing operation.

That is one big roll of paper...it would last me a while. I like that shot of the Drane house, too.

"Ran into Sheila quite a few times all over town." Why does she walk in the middle of the road?

God bless.

Karen, thank you for sharing the pictures of how things go when you go to Bedford. I've always tried to picture in my mind what it looked like when I read your blog. That roll of paper is huge, but then so are the printing presses. What a blessing you and Ken have to be a vital part of such a wonderful ministry...sharing the gospel.

I love driving the country roads. So peaceful. I also love that log cabin house. Janice

That is quite the operation for the Romans books. Praying right now they get into the right hands and are effectual for salvation!
