Autumn Colours

I seem to spend a lot of time driving to and from the forest (as well as decorating while I'm there - bathroom nearly has walls, the shower works, the basin still isn't connected...)

This was taken on the home a few days ago, near where I saw the back end of a wild boar and some deer ....







This is a tree near Canop Ponds

I never realised that trees do hug themselves !!!
















And this is my favourite tree, very twisted and old, and the leaves are just turning....

It is by the side of the road, covered in moss.

Looks like several creature should be living in it - or perhaps they are :-)












Yesterday morning we took the elderly dog for a walk - I didn't realise how short his legs are and that he doesn't like to go far...

So we had lots of time to admire the view on the way back - the sky was very dramatic

The polytunnels not so pretty...









This one looks like large worms are coming over the hill....
And that is it for today - next time there might be knitting or tales of sea travel ...
I have managed to upload all my holiday photos they all can be found off here hopefully in the correct folders....

Deep in the Forest

My camera took a holiday for a few days in the Forest....

And these are a few things it saw whilst there...



There were strange moss covered trees













A very pretty butterfly - a friend of the one spotted by a moggie recently ?












And the light was bright (when it wasn't raining !!)
















I also helped rip out a bathroom - well when I say a bathroom - it was more wall and ceiling removal... the bath stayed where it was but it is now on the landing (nice!)
The paper we found was interesting





And some of the paper was very old...
Did you know that you can get twenty bags of rubble in the back of a belingo car/van?
It will be great when the first house is clean, tidy and ready to sell - at the moment we dont get much time to sit knit & paint...
