Christmas Walks
« on: 18:55:54, 25/12/19 »
What a glorious sunny Christmas day up on Dartmoor today.  MrsG was working so after a bit of kitchen prepping for this evening I spent the day walking out to Fur tor in the heart of the moor.   I was glad I took a pair of trainers in my pack.  The Tavy was past knee deep where I crossed it.  What a peaceful place to be on a fabulous day like today.

A family walk up Hampsfell in the South Lakes. Sunshine, limestone pavement, woodland, stunning views of Coniston Old Man, Langdale Pikes and Helvellyn partially wreathed in cloud. Still a few small patches of snow on Fairfield, but other than that, all gone.

A stroll along the sea wall near Maldon in Essex in glorious sunshine.
These boots are made for walking.... so long as the rest of my body agrees

Christmas morning I walked up Screel Hill and discovered this Christmas tree with a view over Auchencairn Bay...

Is that blue thing under the tree a rowing boat?

No, it's a Roses tin - I didn't check it for contents, I assume it was used to carry the decorations in

I've just used a magnifying glass, (my eyes are not that good these days) and you are right. Great photo though.

Could see a thing when I got up on Christmas morning, thick fog. Decided to get out anyway.



Climbing out of the gloom.

The Wallace Monument.

On Ben Cleuch.

The disused chimney of Longannat power station poking through the fog and Grangemouth pollution factory at full output.


Still glad I went out.

Nice outdoors images! Too busy over Christmas (I hate it!!) but yesterday by teenage son & a mate from work went over to do the Pen y Fan Horseshoe hike. On the most un-scenic day ever....  ::)


Low cloud clearing.... to more low cloud.... I think I came back with 3 okay images. Mean's I'll have to go back again for the view from Neuadd up to Pen y Fan!!

How could you not check inside a Rose's tin (shock)
So many paths yet to walk, so little time left
