This morning it wasn't cold at 54 degrees but it was a rainy walk with a bit of a breeze.
The weather has been like a yoyo.
Sunrise 6:29
I walked around both of the cemeteries and the ball park each a couple of times.
Then continued up and down the main road and side streets.
The fisherman was there at the pond again fishing in the rain.
I said to myself, he must really like to fish.
And then I thought he's probably thinking, she must really like to walk. ๐
It wasn't a heavy rain so actually it was quite nice walking along.

We went to a couple of stores looking for a weed trimmer but didn't find the one we wanted.
Will probably end up buying it on line.
Finished up the last of this weeks house chores.
I found a great YouTube tutorial on learning to crochet.
Here's my practice swatch of the single crochet stitch.
The first few rows don't look quite right but now I think I've got it.
I'll practice this a little more and then go on to learning the double crochet stitch.
I'm liking this crocheting! ๐๐งถ
A happy day to you.
Thanks for stopping by.

The weather has been up and down here in Montreal as well! LOL! I love your rain photo, Karen. I think your crochet work looks fabulous!
I like your rain photo. Spring is always a fickle season.
...we all enjoy doing what we enjoy doing!
Yes, it certainly looks wet in your photograph!
I like your crochet swatch.
All the best Jan
The weather is a yoyo here too. Today was beautiful, this weekend we're supposed to be very cold and rainy again.
Your crochet looks great!
I recently taught myself to knit but didn’t do much with it. I do prefer to crochet. I’m working on a blanket right now
Looks really good for a first time!
The color is really pretty. Both you and the fisherman are totally dedicated!
Another fun hobby for you in crocheting. I was chuckling at your conversation with yourself about the fisherman. :) We had rain today!
My mom crocheted and started crocheting when I was young. I haven't picked up a needle since my first son was born. After having kids, just too busy. I have too many crochet hooks from both my mom and grandmother. I just can't part with them, always holding out that one day I will start up again.
When you said that about the fishermen, I instantly thought what you thought. Lol. My sons are out backpacking in the rain as I write this. So you, the fisherman and my sons belong to a very special club - the storm troopers. ๐
Your first effort at crochet looks so good. You have a talent for handwork.
I love to crochet, can't do anything too fancy, but I get by. My grandmother was the best, she could carry on a conversation and never drop a stitch. I have a few of her pieces, they're very old and very fragile. I used to display them around the house, now they're packed away to save on the wear and tear. Sometimes I get the box out and look at them. Good luck learning all the different stitches, your first piece looks great!
We had a few different showers during the morning, but it turned out to be a beautiful day in the end! Great job on the crochet swatch! I'm a crocheter rather than a knitter, so it's exciting for me to see that you are learning a new craft!
My wife taught herself to crochet and now she's been doing it for over 45 years. Have fun!
I love crocheting. Hope you like it too. Janice
