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

Wednesday

 The doe and her twin fawns were in the road again
down the street from my house when I drove to town for my walk.

It was 69 degrees, cloudy, and breezy.
Got rained on near the end of my walk.
Just a light drizzle.


I brought a plastic bag with me and picked up some
fallen apples around the apple tree on the cemetery road.
The deer like apples so I've been picking them up and putting
them out back of my house on a rock.
It's fun to watch the deer come and have an apple snack.
I also put some water out back for the deer.

Walked around the cemetery on the hill.
Then went back on the main road heading toward home.
Turned around after a ways and walked through town over to
the industrial park and walked up and down the main road there.


Then back through town and to the pond parking lot where the Jeep is parked.

Didn't see anyone at all out this morning.
They either took the day off and were out at different times.

Was busy this morning getting some house work done.

We went to the library this afternoon.
Picked up a book for me and a DVD for Ken that we reserved.
Also picked out a couple other DVD's.
Connie asked if I would like another African Violet and I said yes, thanks.
She will be working Saturday and will bring it then when I'm there
for Stitching.

A beautiful sunny day, 80 degrees with a cool breeze.
I sat out on the porch and read.

That's going to be it for today.
Happy Wednesday
Thanks for stopping by.

Really good idea to pick up those apples for the deer. I should do that for the deer that hang around my workplace.

I think I am moving to Garrett County. It did was hot and humid here today. It's hard to believe how different our weather is when we don't live very far away. 😊. I'll look forward to seeing your new African violet!

I can't believe Goldenrod already! I can't believe I saw a maple turning color here today, either.

...yep, it's hard to believe that it's golderod time.

I was going to ask what that pretty yellow bush was but both Rose and Tom have answered my question.
I don't have good luck with African Violets. They rebloom half-heartedly not full of blooms like I want so after a while I take them to the thrift store and buy new ones.

What a beautiful vivid yellow plant! And such a good idea about the apples!

Ann said...

The doe and her fawns seem to have a daily routine since you keep seeing them.
I bet the deer will really enjoy those apples.

Bill said...

That's nice that the apples you find are given to the deers to enjoy.
