Day in Grasmere

Noticed this roadside guardian
Made the most of last weeks' sunny weather,
and drove up to Grasmere, in the Lake District.
Got there early morning, went for a delicious coffee
and toasted teacake; then headed out a quarter of a mile
down the main road before following the path down into the
woods.

There were lots of places to dip your feet in the water

Here is a quilt I made recently, the colours remind me of stained glass
The walk took about two hours, or so, whilst we stopped to admire the views, then back into Grasmere where we  had a late lunch sat outside one of the hotels. Great food, and blue skies, a delicious combination!

  1. Sounds and looks like you had a great day :-)
    We all should take days like this occasionally, it helps to rejuvenate the brain and sometimes sparks ideas. :-)
