Meanwhile at Frogknot...

So...we have a new addition at Blue Moon. Rochelle Summerfield, who is one of the artists in the Hopeful Disruptions art collective that Will is part of, has finished a special painting for us. It is a painting of one of the old Mountain Orange Gums that we have on the property. I love it!

Blackpool!

So...during my recent carer's break I chose to spend a night in Blackpool for a change of scene. It felt like I practically had the place to myself. I actually had a lovely time. The weather was kind and I walked for miles along the sea front and the beach on the afternoon I arrived and the next morning.

The Tower

A local.

Herring Gull

The 'Big One' at the Pleasure Beach.

I hoped these were not memorials to people who had jumped off! There were hundreds!

The best place for Fish and Chips in Blackpool?

Time off.

So...when I have had a chance I have been off out for a few walks, the first by the river Eden in Carlisle and another walk with Nathan around Culgaith.

The River Eden in Carlisle...

Carlisle Castle

Acorn Bank

St Edmund's Church, Newbiggin

Glorious mud!

To the Pennines...

Winter lights at Canary Wharf.

So...while I was in London I was able to catch up with Steven and see the Winter Lights at Canary Wharf!

Family time.

So...last weekend I was able to get down to London to see my boys that live down there. We had a trip down the river to visit the Battersea Powerstation shopping precinct.
