Simple Pleasure - walking


Tom and I went for a walk at the outdoor market this evening.


It was a good walk.
Yes, walking with Tom is my simple pleasure this week
Weather couldn't have been more perfect.
The weather forecast is rain for the next six months.
With a few snow storms thrown in.

Dayle, over at A Collection of This and That,
is hosting Simple Pleasures.
Please join us every Thursday.

  4. That walk was a feast for the eyes!! I am very happy for you to enjoy your walk with Tom; there's nothing like sharing God's beauty with someone you love (and his knee being well enough to enjoy a walk).

  6. I love walking and I love farmer's markets. We have a Saturday Market with the same features. Your photography is beautiful.

    Six months of rain.....don't even talk about it. I'm so not wanting winter this year. We just put away our deck furniture that could fit in the shed and be stored. You know how it is needing to put the cushions and umbrella away when they are dry because once the rain starts, it's too hard to dry them out completely.

  8. Christine,
    What an answer to prayer, to be able to walk once more with Tom! I am so thankful that he is recovering from his surgery and is able to enjoy this simple pleasure with you! Your photos are beautiful! The produce, bright flowers and the sparkling water... stunning!

  10. What a fun market. I do believe I saw some Cambodians selling flowers in one of the photos and as you know Cambodia is near and dear to me these days. Koodos to Tom on his recovery (with your help!).

  15. Now, I walk with my husband, but it's just in a big old circle around the neighbhorhood. I would love to walk and end up in an open air market like that! It looked wonderful. I'll bet you enjoyed every sight and sound of it... and taste too, maybe?

  20. Thank you so very much for your sweet comment on arise 2 write. You will never know what it meant to me.

    It seems my post could be taken the wrong way. I certainly did not mean it as bragging. It was simply my attempt to be honest about my situation.

    As GOD would have it, Sitka wrote about "needing a translator" and "being misunderstood" over at All Gods Creatures! Yes, GOD speaks loudly to me through my dogs. He was preparing me for what he knew I would need in minutes. HE IS AWESOME!

    Hugs,
    andrea
