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

ABC Friday

 Started my walk in town at 6:25 and sunrise was 7:02
It was 54 degrees and once the sun was up it was sunny.

Went through town and up and down some side streets 
on my way over to the industrial park and walked around in there.


Continued over to the ball park and around there.
Stopped to watched the chicks again.
Can't tell the little ones from the big one now.


When I got back to the pond I already had all of my steps.

RuthAnne was out walking her two dogs but she was up the
road and didn't see me.

☀️    🐓    🍁

Hung a load of laundry out on the line and finished up
the weekly house chores.

In the afternoon I went outside to work on a little project I'm making
with a little help from Ken.
Not finished yet, so no pictures.

A beautiful day and perfect for sitting out on the porch.

My ABC'S

Sometimes pictures, sometimes just words but it will be something about me.

B IS FOR BOOKS

I've enjoyed books from the time I was a little girl.
I loved my Little Golden Books and my Mom told me
I took very good care of them.
She read them over and over to me and tells how she sometimes
would change the story around a bit and I would always say,
That's not how the story goes.
Since then I don't think I've ever been without a book to read.

I don't have as many books as I once did.
Got rid of a lot of them and only kept the books that I love and
would read again.

My most precious book and I read it every day is my
Bible.
I believe it is the inspired Holy Word of God.
II Timothy 3:16  All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

 I have both my grandmother's and mother's Bibles.


Thanks for stopping by.
Hope you Friday is happy one.

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; 
they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, 
and the most patient of teachers.

Golden books were a big deal, back in the day. I had a few as a child. Chicks grow so fast, those will be full grown before you know it!

I liked all the little pictures that went around the back hard cover of the Golden Books. We love our books here and have way too many. How sweet to have your mom's and grandmother's Bibles. The Bible is the most worthwhile book we could own!
