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

Brenda's

28 degrees this morning, cloudy and windy for walking.
Supposed to start snowing at 7:00 and there was a few flurries and then nothing.
Sunrise 7:48

Started my walk going around the lower cemetery and then it was up the hill to the other cemetery.
The sky had a pink glow for a few minutes.


Piles of manure waiting to be spread out over the fields. 
Not a particularly nice smell.


From there went to the ball park and walked that loop a couple of times.
They chickens were all out again.

The woodpecker has been at it again at the ball park.



I walked back to the Jeep and got a DVD and walked to the library and put it down the drop.
On the way there Karen, a friend from town was driving out of the drive thru at the bank as I walked by and she stopped to talk a bit.

Bill (town worker) was just getting to work and he also stopped to talk.

Then it was back to the Jeep and home again.

☁️    🥾    🐓    😊

The sheets got washed and put back on the bed like every Monday.
This morning I tackled the laundry room, giving it one of those super good cleans which took the whole morning.

I was finished cleaning for the day after that.
Read some more of my book and knitted some too.
A quiet afternoon but I enjoy my afternoons.

No cooking supper today.
Leaving in a little while to go to Brenda's, it's half price pizza day.🍕
Years ago before covid we used to go most every Monday.
Then during covid we starting making our pizza every week.
Now it is a treat when we go to Brenda's once in a while.

It snowed on and off all day but we just ended up with a dusting.

Hope you enjoyed your Monday.
Thanks for popping in for a visit.

... pileated woodpeckers had a filed day with that tree.

Wow those woodpeckers sure damaged that tree. I have quite a few woodpeckers in my incense cedar trees but other than little holes, no real damage. Pizza is always good, at home or out. Nice to change things up.

Have you seen the woodpecker that makes those holes? I imagine it's a big one!
What did you have on your pizza?

Mari said...

That woodpecker has been so busy!
Hope you had fun with Brenda!

WOW that woodpecker sure is doing damage to that tree...but then again it may be full of bugs and rotting from the inside out. What a beautiful sky. Hope your pizza was good. Janice
