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

Snow?

A thunderstorm came through last night but was just cloudy when I started walking this morning.
The temperature was 53 degrees and windy.
Half way through my walk it started raining.
The umbrella was in the car, but with the wind it would have been useless.
So I got a bit wet.
Temperature went down too and by the time I was done walking it was 43 degrees.

I had a book to bring to the library so went there first and put it down the drop.
Then continued walking around town.


 Walked around the ball park and both of the cemeteries.


The chickens were all out and didn't seem to mind that it was raining.

I haven't seen Bill working around town for about a week now.
Will have to ask around how he is.
Unusual not to see him.

Nice to get home to dry warm house.

Sheets got washed and I got a good start on the weekly house cleaning.

Did some reading in the afternoon and knitted a couple rows on the throw blanket.
Didn't finish it like I thought I would, but it will be done today!!

It stopped raining but stayed cloudy and the temperature went down to 35 degrees this afternoon and then it snowed! (didn't amount to anything though)
What a difference from yesterday when it was sunny and 74!!!

For supper tonight we're having steak, fried onions, and cheese subs.

Hope you had a wonderful Monday and thanks for stopping by.

Spring break?

Oh fickle spring, the blistering gaze allows
the blasting winds that rip across the ground
to spook the sheep and aggravate the cows
and cause havoc everywhere, all around

...the weather changed by the minute here. Clouds, sun, rain, snow!

Funny fun spring. :)
I love that picture of that church!!!!!
Your dinner sounds so good. We are having salsa chicken tacos.

Ginny Hartzler said...

I want one of those subs!!! I love your shot of the church at the end of the road.

Michelle said...

Spring is a strange, changeable season. Your subs for supper sound good!

Lovely photos, Karen. We got snow ❄️ here in Montreal over the weekend and it is snowing today as well. I honestly don't mind.

I'm sure it was nice to get home to your dry warm house... but well done with your walking.

All the best Jan

We also had snow today, nothing that stuck though. It was cold and windy all day, but nicer weather is predicted later this month.
I love that old church!

We had snow showers off and, on all day, today, Karen. Carroll had taken a load of trash to the transfer station this morning and when he came back, he started loading the truck up with a load of firewood for a customer. When he came in he said that he only got it half loaded because the snow chased him inside. I thought he was kidding, but I looked out and sure enough...it was snowing.
Glad you had a productive day and your supper sounds delicious.

Hi Karen! Your steak, onion, and cheese subs sound good! We were up in the 80s over the weekend, but only in the 60s today. We could sure use some rain and snow. I hope you have a good week! See you again soon!

The weather sure is changeable. We had a cloudy day but no rain. Tuesday & Wednesday are forecast to be very wet which means some paths will stay flooded longer. Luckily we have other places to walk.
Fresh clean sheets here tooπŸ’—

Hello,
It was windy here yesterday and this morning we are back to feeling like winter. Cheesesteak subs are yummy!
Take care, enjoy your day and the week ahead.

We had snow off and on for most of the day yesterday but there was no accumulation. It's really cold this morning too

Debbie said...

I've always thought it was fun to be out in the rain...but not if it's cold. I can't believe you got snow! I wonder if the chickens got warm after their walk :)

It is true that Spring weather can be very fickle. Glad you had a warm house to come home to.
