Blue skies and white fluffy clouds today. Perfect for a seven mile walk. Fantastic views. There are pictures the same as these elsewhere on the blog because I have walked this route many times. Didn't even need to wear a jacket, it was quite warm.
As I came into a village I got chatting to an elderly couple out for a stroll. I describe them as elderly but they were probably about my age. They very kindly invited me to take a look at their garden. There was no garden at the front of the house, but the back garden was huge. I am not very good at describing acreage or square feet, but it was big. He had a big veg garden, a massive lawn, a fish pond, two greenhouses, a potting shed, and a big chicken coop. The borders were full of spring flowers. That must be a heck of a lot of work for them.
I called in to see my friend June but she wasn't there. Not surprising, I think a lot of people were out and about on a sunny afternoon.
Dinner was an under the grill meal tonight. Quorn chicken nuggets, hash brown, Quorn sausage, and wedges (chunky chips)
I have been putting food out for the hedgehogs in case they come out of hibernation. No sign of them yet.
Thanks for popping in. Have a good weekend. Toodle pip. ilona
Looks like a lovely walk with some amazing views of the river. Is this the Trent or the Humber?. I’m still

At this point it is the Trent. Further on it merges with the River Ouse. Then it becomes the Humber as it makes it's way towards the Bridge and out to sea.
DeleteIt must be a comfort to you knowing that your dad is being looked after.
Wow, didn't even have to wear a jacket . . . I'm truly looking forward to that day here. You certainly live in a beautiful area :)
ReplyDeleteThe weather is still so changeable, so it's nice to see sunshine. I remember one year we had snow at Easter. I hope that's not the case this year.
Delete7 miles?? I walked round our bungalow 3 times and that was my exercise... and today it is tipping down so a jigsaw afternoon instead.
