When the windows are closed, I can't hear the bells that chime every day. It was a 3 chime day as I heard the 5 o'clock church bells and again at 6 when walking to the Post Office. Hubby and I picked up the mail and then walked a ways to sit on a bench. The church bells were playing a hymn at this time. So peaceful and pleasant to be able to sit on a Main Street bench in small town America where the street is quiet.
We prayed together on that bench.
Today it's a bit windy with the temperature at 71 degrees...Spring seems to be here for a few hours in February. I'll be back in a little while. Going to go for a walk with my Grand Daughter. Simply too beautiful to be inside on this fine day!
Thankful that it is like a Spring Day in Winter,

Wow...really? They play a hymn? That is amazing! How wonderful to live in Small Town America!
How sweet that you and hubby said a prayer while sitting on the bench listening to the bells.
Enjoy your walk with the little princess!

That was such a pleasant walk on a pleasant evening. So ready for spring to come and stay awhile.
I was surprised by the bells playing a hymn, wasn't aware that they did. So glad that we had that moment
to sit and relish the quiet beauty of our little town.
Hi Deanna! I just found your blog via Foodie Friday, by reading your comment about cornbread mix you found at Big Lots~! Imagine my surprise to find that you are a Flint Hills gal...both of our daughters graduated from KSU and I love riding through the Flint Hills! Your lovely stone home reminds me of so many I have seen and admired! Glad to find your pretty blog and look forward to reading more.
Isn't that sound wonderful, Deanna? I miss church bells ringing. It's been in the 70's here this week and next too. I hope it stays. I have been working in the garden raking the leaves....Christine
