Getting our boots on!!
Our friend Clare
Starting the climb.....
These steps look so pretty
Going up !
Nearly there
Long shadows walking home.....
We are so very lucky to live close to the lakes, but this year walking has been limited....
Not today though, we have walked through shadowy lichen woods, dripping with emerald green, mosses, wet and spangled with rusty and purple mushrooms, climbed steep soft grey shale slopes, and watched the autumn mists swirl lavender in the valleys below. We have felt like Kings eating our lunch on the top of the Fell looking down on the birds rising and flying on the air currents. Days like today will lodge in my memory, the strength of my husbands hand in mine, the warmth of good friends, the called greeting and open smile of other's along the same paths, and the absolute joy of being on the land with its generous endless beauty.
I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. Lots of love and hugs. xx xx
