Staying ‘Up Over’ for a while.
Time with Tessa.
So…we had some time off with Tessa last week. She was over from Australia visiting family and she popped up to see us for a few days. We spent a lot of time in the Lake District, walking from Skelwith Bridge to Elterwater with her Auntie and Uncle, a steep climb up Raven Crag, a visit to Castlerigg Stone Circle and Mayborough Henge and an epic walk up Causey Pike on her last day with us.
Garden Visitors.
So…we have been enjoying watching the birds coming to feed in the garden this summer…
Scenes from recent walks.
So…here are some pictures from a few walks we have managed to get out and do recently…
Border, back and forth.
So…our latest weekend away was in the Scottish Borders, in the North East. We visited Kelso to see Eddi Reader in concert at the Tait Hall, (she was fantastic!) but we stayed in Eyemouth, on the coast. We had a lovely walk at St Abbs Head to see the nesting sea birds on the cliffs and stacks, had a brief visit to Berwick on Tweed and a trip across the tidal causeway to Lindisfarne, after a 45 minute wait to clear a van that had got stuck on the crossing. On our way back we stopped off at Seahouses and discovered Northumberlandia, reclaimed land from a former coal mine now the World’s largest human landform sculpture designed by Charles Jencks.
