A Sunday mid-day walk to enjoy the late Winter landscape.
First picture taken at 12:00.
Last picture taken at 12:46.
Forty six minutes of crystal clear skies, icy cold air, sun dappled water, gentle exercise, beautiful vistas.
Forty six minutes of happy, chattery, laughter-filled family time.
Exactly six months since we were here enjoying Late Summer.
Little B walked this time, with just a short ride on Daddy's shoulders at the end.
My my, how quickly time flies.

Beautiful pictures. They take me out of where we live now (not a fan-west of Chicago-I have been to London 3 times but never into the countryside.Hope you have a happy Spring.

I need to move to your home... all that beautiful land around just within walking distance! Living in a rather squashed urban environment in Singapore, I'm very, very, and I mean VERY envious!

It's great to get out and adventure as a family, isn't it? :) Can't believe how quickly little B has grown.

Hi there, the pictures are lovely, just capture the day, and the few words say everything. I am very interested in the second picture. I saw this strange effect with a 'large puddle' for the first time earlier this winter in the New Forest near where our motorhome is situated. I have never seen it before; it's very difficult to describe, but like wet ice with air pockets!!

*sigh*...breath in that blue sky and sunshine! Glad you're getting out a bit...lovely when you can isn't it? And you do live in a lovely part of the country.
Enjoy! And roll on Spring! xx

I am always a day late for your posts!! But I'm all caught up. Thank you for your tutorial on the fun flower and even talking about winter blahs. I have experienced those even though our winter here in Iowa has not been bad. I love these pictures!!! Hope you soon will have more time to hook!!

We have earmarked this walk to be one of my 'first' when my knee is back up to walking again post surgery - lovely to see the photos in such a beautiful light.

But where is it? Or are you keeping this particular beauty spot a secret?

I am not sure if it is because you live in the most beautiful place in the world or that you take the most amazing pictures, but either way, Love, Love, Love that you take the time to take the pics and share them with us!!!! Hope all is well, can't wait to try the flower project!!! Thanks for that also!!!

You live in a very beautiful place Lucy. Dh and i had a drive to the seaside yesterday to blow our cobwebs away and picnic lunch in the car listening to the waves crashing on the beach, sheer bliss.
