Walking to Goodwill

The other day Chantel and I decided it would be a beautiful day to walk to Goodwill.  It is probably about a mile away.  Well, as is our luck, it didn't stay a beautiful day!

That's a telephone book in their front yard. Around here we get one delivered about every month. What's up with that? Does anyone even use a telephone book anymore?

On our walk we passed a favorite house of mine. I have always loved this house. It is near Chantel's school--which used to be my school when I was her age. I have been admiring this house for many years!

 

This moss covered fence is at another neighbors house. I always think it looks neat when I walk by it daily to meet my Mom to walk at the school, so I decided to take a picture of it!

After going to Goodwill it started to rain. We decided to walk to Grandma and Grandpa's (my parents) because they live really near Goodwill. I knew my husband was going there after work to help my Dad with his pond so he could take us home. :)

 

 

My Dad's pond is so beautiful in the summer. I will have to post pictures of it later this year. Right now all the fish are still sleeping.

My parents yard is beginning to be taken over with ivy. Ivy grows all too well in Oregon. It is actually illegal to plant ivy in Oregon now. It is overtaking our state! But it still looks kind of neat in the picture:)

Our walk to Goodwill resulted in me finding this blue pitcher, that I just love.  We also found some stuff for Janae.

Love this little bird--Janae and I both got these on sale at Fred Meyers. Looks so sweet with the nest in it. It is suppose to hold a votive candle.

I got a couple of flowers to plant today. Sunshine..where did you go? Do you not know it is spring break?

By the way, my Mother loved her strawberry cart. Thanks to everyone who commented on it.

Thanks for visiting!
