River Weaver - Hartford

Lovely walk this morning despite the cold and the mud! Seems even wetter down the lane than usual - did it rain last night? We didn't hear it. Anyway - lots of folks had the same idea - walking their doggoes and cycling their pscychos eyc. Down the locks and back down the other side of the river. Afterwards to the antique emporiums at Blakemere. No bargains sadly. Just some dark choc ginger biscuits to have with our tea later.

Saturday Walk

Down the road to the comunity orchard and the fishing ponds. A bit nippy but no frost thankfully. saw a few ducks, a coot and a seagull. Hazel thinks she saw a heron flying off in the distance ( she's pointing at it in the photo ). The twiggy horse was looking well and the apple trees have been pruned for next Springs growth. I did some pointing too!

Archie had a guess as to what I was pointing at!

West Yorkshire

Lovely day out to West Yorshire to see how Archie and Meriel are settling in their new abode. They have done wonders so far but so much more to do. They are young and have the energy to do it. Meriel made a delicious tuna and tomato orzo pasta with salad and feta cheese. Yum! Went for a short walk to the weir and the local church yard. Sundays are best for driving early down those wiggly country lanes. Going home was a bit busier with a few idiot Sunday drivers to keep an eye out for.
