We were pinned at home by the storms over the weekend, nothing long was really possible so we made do the best we could. Sunday was utterly dreadful and it doesnt take long for cabin fever to set in. But this week is half term and so we took our chance on monday. Although we didnt mean to – I have a slightly dodgy back at the moment, I felt it pull while lifting but I figured a few miles to see the folks and back wouldnt hurt.
So off we went and although the wind was still strong it was just fine. We extended a little and then some more and then figured well we might as well go a little further which led to us covering around 10 miles or so and we got to see the damage to our forest – which turned out to be surprisingly little just a few trees here and there.
First blue skies for days – looking out towards Witches Point from inland Trree down Another tree down Back along the beach Happy to be back on the rrun A different path – We are lucky enough to have a key and access to a prriovate path back from the beach Normally we avoid people by running early in the day but today people were about as it was early afternoon so we used our key and slipped past them on the other side of the river Murprhy rreturrning from a squirrrel chase Flowers – sprring is imminent We finished the day with a stroll though the fields at sunset And I got a new bed – its huuuuuuge (I am spoiled)
