.......to keep a record of a sunny Sunday walk.
Tree tunnels and friends..
richly coloured moors
blue skies
feathery dozing trees
silvery seedheads
and a joyous little dog with a white triangle at the back.
Our boots were heavy with mud but our hearts were light.
Just me, with Hetty on her lead.
The gloating autonomous Jools sitting on the compost bin watching us set off.
And they're off.
But they are as nosey as she is and look at her from a safe distance.
Creeping back gradually.
There's nothing quite like a sheepish stare.
Then back towards home...my house (Or at least the roof) across the road is just in the centre...red brick with 3 chimneys. Our half is hidden behind the tree.
We leave the sheep to safely graze under the wide moorland sky.
Two glorious sunny days.
Perfect - Just Perfect!
ReplyDeleteYou live in such a beautiful part of the world Jackie. These photo's are just stunning. Love the shots of Hetty in action and the sheep too!

I feel invigorated just reading this. Stunning views and lovely photos.
ReplyDeleteIndeed what is blogging for?
ReplyDeleteI am envious of your house - what a glorious position!
Autumn is my favourite season thanks for sharing your lovely pic's with us.
ReplyDeleteYou have captured some of my favourite things in your lovely photographs Jackie - thanks for sharing them with us. I love the moors and tree tunnels, especially when they grow over very old lanes and pathways.
ReplyDeleteLove Hetty's reaction to the sight of sheep. Perhaps she could get a part-time job as a sheep dog! Or maybe she just wants to see them run.
Thank you for sharing this journey - it was a delight to follow you. Especially on a day when I'm stuck inside with the rain outside and the ironing to do ...
ReplyDeleteLovely to see the sunshine, isn't it!
ReplyDeleteGlorious photos - thanks for sharing. x Jo

I think a hobbit might be just out of sight in the leafy tunnel. That looks like the place fairy tales come from.

ReplyDeleteHi, Jackie. Amazing photos and I liked seeing where you live. I used to think I lived in the country, but now the big city is encroaching. Looks like you won't be having that problem!
