Seizing the day!

In the UK we are all atwitter about the spell of fine, warm weather. we are enjoying.  It's been gloriously good for all the wrong reasons of course, but with so much else to be feeling stressed about (B-word and all that), I just feel that if the weather is irresistible, embrace it and go for a good walk!  It could be snowing this time next week - you never know.

I needed to do a recce for my next walking group walk so today was the day.  It involved a short bus journey from North Berwick to Whitekirk and then walking back, cross country, to NB.  It took the dogs and me exactly 2 hours, to the minute, from getting off the bus to finally reaching the car.  Perfect timing for the walk, which are designed to take two hours.  En route we enjoyed the sunshine, the views, lots of skylarks singing away in the blue skies above, snowdrops and early appearances of sapphire blue germander speedwell and red dead nettle.  I had to keep reminding myself that we are still in February!  Bonkers.

The running wave uses Blogger as it's vehicle and they are changing the way a post is created but unfortunately I cannot make the new format work. I can't progress beyond the title! I cannot navigate to the main body of the post to create text. The new template has no prompts for adding photos, weblinks, to format the text, change font etc. It may be my old MacBook that's as fault but I can't do anything about that!! Are any other IAVOM bloggers who use Blogger having the same problems? I have tried, three times, to contact Blogger through their 'Help' prompt and received no feedback or contact whatsoever. This post is using the old 'Legacy' format, which no longer permits any kind of formatting of text, and so after four attempts I have finally manage...

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.
