The latest two puzzles

Thanks for all the anniversary wishes. 😊

Well there was nothing falling from the sky

this morning and the sun did come out and you might have thought

that sounded good for a morning walk,

BUT

the temperature was -10F

so back down in the basement for my walk.

Pictures of the last two puzzles.
Small and easy ones.
Each one done in a day.

We had enough of this staying in the house so we left at lunch time

and went into town.

We had a bite to eat and then went to the library.

Ken had a book on hold and it was ready for pick up.

There is a big event that our church holds on every year,

Sportsman's Wild Game Dinner

and local businesses donate gifts for the door prizes.

Ken and I went around and started picking up some of the prizes.
The picture above is a flyer that we put up on the
bulletin board in the laundromat.

When we got back home we decided to bundle up and take a ride
on the ATV around the trails on our property.
Driving up the lane here.

 It was a beautiful sunny day with a beautiful blue sky.
Looks warm but looks can be deceiving,
the temperature was 4F.
Here we are driving down one of the trails.
All those tracks you see are deer tracks.
It was neat to see all the different trails the deer travel along.

Only stayed out about 45 minutes.
It was nice to be outside for a while
but nice to get inside our nice warm house again
where we had a hot cup of tea.

 I guess that about does it for today.
Hope your day was a happy one.
Life is Good
happyone ❤️

No walking outside this morning.

It was snowing but today it was VERY windy and the

temperature was 8 degrees and kept going lower throughout the day.

Sometimes the wind was blowing the snow around so much that

I couldn't even see the mailbox at the end of the driveway.

 So it was back to the basement for walking.
As I'm writing this post now at almost 5:00 the temperature is at -3F.

Didn't do much of anything today.

Finished reading my book,

The Beautiful Mystery

by Louise Penny.

It was a Chief Inspector Gamache book and a bit different from the

the usual.  This murder was in a remote Monastery in the remote

wilderness in Quebec.  

A bit slow moving but I thought it was very good.

📚

Did finish the small puzzle yesterday and started another

small one today which I will finish later.

I'll take a picture of both of them for tomorrows post.

🧩

Made some more weave-it squares.

It is our 47th wedding anniversary today and we had planned

on going out to eat at Outback to celebrate but decided to stay home and

have pizza. 🍕 Will go another day when the weather is better.

I've told the story about how Ken and I met before and many of

you may know it but there are some new readers so I thought I'd

tell the story again.

❤️     🚤     ❤️

My mother and father were divorced and my dad had a 

boat which he kept on the Hudson River, in Nyack, New York.  

I would drive up to the boat on weekends to see my dad and his girlfriend Jeanne.
One 4th of July I went up to the boat for the holiday 

with my boyfriend and another friend of mine to spend the day. 

Jeanne's two kids were to be there too 

and I would be meeting them for the first time.  

Her daughter Kathy was there with her 10 month old baby, Diane. 

Her son, as you probably have guessed is Ken 

who came up to the boat with his girlfriend.  

Well when the two of us met there was a connection right away 

and Kenny captured my heart that very day.  

It made things a bit awkward 

because we both happened to be engaged to other people.  

We ended those engagements and started dating. 

We were married the end of January just 6 months later. 
Though my dad and Ken's mother did get married 

they got divorced several years later 

but for a time Ken and I were step-brother and sister!  

My mother in law was also my step mother.
My sister in law was also my step sister.
When David and Debbi came along, not only were they our kids, 

but also our nephew and niece. 
Pretty crazy huh.

💒

Didn't take any pictures today.
Though I really do like winter and the snow
I'm missing some sun and color and warmer weather about now.
Here's a Field of Sunflowers to help me remember that there will be
sunny, warm walking weather once again.

That's it for today.
Hope your day was a happy one and you stayed nice and warm.
Life is Good
happyone  ❤️

Angie - Most days I walk 6 miles but yesterday I just walked 5.5 miles in the snow.
