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

Oreo's

Walked the Farm Loop this morning.
55 degrees and sunny but there were some low clouds.
Just turned off the main road where I was in sunshine
and I walked into the cloud.
Farther along the farm loop.
Once back in town, I made a big loop around town to get in
6 miles.

I'll probably walk the Farm Loop more often now that the kids are
out of school and I don't have the school buses to watch out for.
When we move it will be just a bit too far to walk so might as walk
it while I can.

Ken destroyed his phone yesterday.
He put it down on the tailgate of the truck and forgot about it.
Then when he put up the tailgate and it got crushed.
So this morning we went and he got a new one.
 Also made a stop at Lowe's 
and did some food shopping at Walmart.

After lunch we went up to the new house.  
Ronnie and Walter were working on the soffits and trim.
It is a red and almost matches the color around the windows.
I'll take a picture once the siding starts to go up.
That will be a greenish gray color.

No one to come to see the house yet, maybe this weekend.
Nice that so many of you are optimistic about the house selling fast.
Sure hope you're right but houses here in this area usually
take quite a while to sell.
There are 10 houses in the area for sale and some of them have been
on the market for over a year.

Having something different than ice cream for my snack later.
Golden Oreo's which I've never had before.
Have you seen how many DIFFERENT kinds of Oreo's are
out there now?!!  Would you believe 61.
Looked it up and here is a link to all the different kinds.

Hope your day was a happy one.

For Sale Sign

62 degrees with on and off again rain on my morning walk,
but it did stop around the last mile and was just cloudy.
Throughout the day we had sun and clouds.

Had my usual walk around town.

It was the last morning I'll be waving to the bus drivers for a while.
It was the last day of school.
 Lots of happy kids around today.

This month is the anniversary of my morning walks.
Though I've always liked walking it was June of 1988 that
I started taking a morning walk.
Hard to believe it has been 30 years.
🎈     🎈     🎈
Amy, our realtor came to the house this morning and we signed
all the papers so the house is now officially For Sale.
She came back later in the day and put the sign in the yard.
Once again this afternoon I was outside weeding yet another garden.
This one is up near the top of the driveway.

While I was doing that Ken got the garage all squared away
and it looks great.  Too bad it took us moving to get it looking so good!! 😊 

That's it for today. 
Hope it won't be long before I can tell you the house is sold.

Hope your day was a happy one.
Life is Good
