Didn't have too much on today so I decided to pack the mule & mosey on up to the woods. It's a 2 & a half hour walk from the house so we left at 9.30 this morning. I don't usually take a camera with me but I did this time just for you dear listeners.
We are headin' for the woods above the village.
A kiss under the mistletoe anyone ?
Gettin' nearer....
Plenty of new & interesting smells around here, ( we don't often come this way)
Although the air was chilly, the sun was warm..
We had gone through the village & now taking the yellow clay road to the woods.
This path looked tempting but...............
We took this one.much more fun.
" Are you coming or are you going to stand there taking photos all day ? "
Voila! the chosen pic-nic site 'cause there's something to sit on.
Well earned drink...
The menu? ...cassoulet (that's posh for baked beans & sausages )
Mmmmmm good enough to eat.
The bush dishwasher
For dessert..........An apple, some white chocolate fingers & an orange & cinnamon tea.
Prehaps it would have been best not to know what I look like :yikes:
After having been fed & watered it was time to hit the trail again,... of course I left the place as I found it.....as R.Mears says "leave only cooking smells"
We continued onwards & eventually joined the path home.
Time for a breather & a spot of vole huntin' before the last ferlong home.........no voles were harmed during the photo shoot....
Well "that's all folks".......a very nice outing & great weather. I also spotted a few interesting sites for future overnighters.
Hope you enjoyed the pics............thanks for listening.
