Late February walk

At last!  We have blue skies, sunshine, a smidgen of warmth from the sun felt through icy winds, and it is all so very welcome (except for the icy winds).  My default walk, when feeling rather stressed and generally preoccupied with the state of the world and all those things I can do absolutely nothing about, is to walk in the grounds at Gosford House.

Come with me on my walk yesterday afternoon, through woodlands where all you can hear is the sound of the wind through the treetops and birdsong.  On past a plantation of wild cherry trees, early daffodils, carpets of snowdrops, the lily pond, pretty pink blossoms clutching the promise of Spring, and accompanied along the way by a heron.  It will be uplifting, peaceful, and tick every single box associated with a very good walk!  Let's go!

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.
