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

Day 7

 

Doing the July Photo-a-day Challenge with ChrissyT

Day 7
Words



📷    📷    📷

Started out with a little fog around but that soon gave way to
sun and clouds.
Temperature 67 and calm.

Walked around both of the cemeteries and then
walked up the hill to the school.


Continued walking on the path that goes around the school.
You can see by the picture that not many people walk here.
The grass has grown over the gravel path.


Then walked back down the hill and over to the ball park loop
and walked around there, and then back to the pond.

I was walking down from the cemetery thinking that I haven't seen
Kinsley in quite a while and then there she was getting dropped
off at the day care.
I've missed getting that big hug from her.
She will be starting middle school in September!!
I've known her since she was 4 years old.

I also saw Anna and her dad Mark out walking by the ball park.
Nice to see them again after such a long time.
Anna is a lovely young lady who has some kind of learning disability 
and always has a big smile and a hug for me.

Food shopping day and this week we decided to go to the
Walmart in LaVale.
It is bigger with much wider aisles and worth the extra drive.

Clouded up this afternoon and we got some rain.

Finished reading The River We Remember sitting
on the front porch this afternoon.
Great Book.

Supper tonight is Soup Bowl Cabbage Rolls.

That's it for today.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Hope you had a wonderful day.

Deb - No, I cancelled KindleUnlimited.  Felt I wasn't reading enough on the kindle
to make it pay.  I get books on BookBub.  They have good deals and I end up spending less than on Kindle/Unlimited.

Challenge Day 6

68 degrees this morning when I walked.
A cloudy morning and calm.

Like most mornings I started walking going around both
of the cemeteries.
Then went down the road to the long barn.


Continued through town to the ball park and around there.
Then just around town up and down the side streets
till I had all my steps in.

Saw Bill numerous times as he was going all over town
emptying all the trash cans.

John was out walking Prim and saw them a couple of times too.

😊    ☁️    🧢

Got the sheets washed and hung out on the line.
Still cloudy but the sun came out later and a breeze
came along and the sheets were quickly dried.
They were back on the bed before lunch.

Baked the last batch of chocolate chip cookies for
Bible Time next week.
21 dozen in all.

My daisies out front are starting to bloom.


I'm reading The River We Remember by William Kent Krueger.
I think it is very good.
Sat out on the porch this afternoon and read.

Thanks for stopping by.
Hope your day was wonderful.
HappyK🙂
