Just a quick post that I thought I'd share with you. I've just come back from a very impromptu but thoroughly enjoyable walk, leaving him-indoors doing the things that him-indoors wanted to do. It was such a gloriously mild afternoon it just had to be done. After the dull rainy days we've had recently it was a real pleasure to get out - plus I'm on a mission to get fit and what better way to go about it. Watch this space.
I lost count of all the birds I could hear singing.
The fallen leaves were in abundance
and very damp, but everything
smelled of that lovely woody, autumnal mustiness
Several dog-walkers bid me good afternoon and I enjoyed taking in the fresh air.
this cheeky little chappy followed me for some time and
actually stood on my toes for his picture to be taken - so tame.
On my way back through the village I spotted this - a mini pop-up library for villagers to make use of - how cool is that.
Bye for now, see you soon x
Lovely post, Patricia. Yes, after a murky start this morning for my drive to Norwich, this afternoon has been much brighter - and WARM! I can cope with this kind of autumn!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely walk you had. I popped to the shops this afternoon and was quite shocked at how mild it was. x
ReplyDeleteCan't beat a good walk accompanied by a nice autumnal smell!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely walk you had. It has been mild over the last few days and a joy to be out walking and breathing in that autumnal air:)
ReplyDeletea walk in the forest at autumn is lovely. Must go and find these pop up libraries, I'm not sure if they are temporary or to stay
ReplyDeleteOh, how envious I am Patricia, a cool Autumn walk in the beautiful countryside. Lovely! What a cute little squirrel, and so tame too. I absolutely love the idea of the mini library, in fact would like to know more about it. Is it private, or organised by the Council or a community group? The little box is beautifully decorated. Cheers xxx
ReplyDeleteIt's good to take advantage of the mild weather and enjoy a walk in the woods and get fit at the same time. I hope to follow your example with both! I like the idea of the pop-up library.
ReplyDeleteIt was lovely down here too yesterday, and we popped out for an impromptu walk around the lake. Not quite as many fallen leaves as you have, but a great day to be out and about.
ReplyDeleteYou are making the most of these lovely gentle days Patricia - the pop up library is fun, and a good way to recycle unwanted books too.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had such a nice walk, Patricia. Thank you for sharing it with us.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and walk,thanks for sharing.I thought the little library was cute however as a librarian I hope this is not all we lft after the cuts.Libraries are closing at a great rate and it is shortsighted and uncivilized .Well that was a little rant! all the best Patricia
ReplyDeleteI think these little libraries are a great idea, they really are a sign of community spirit if nothing else and how good is that to find. xx
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful you afternoon stroll was Patricia!
ReplyDeleteLovely squirrel and singing birds, fallen leaves -- the autumn is here, although the weather in London is warm. You're lucky!
What a lovely walk! The countryside is very beautiful, and I love the little library box. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe weather at the end of October as very conducive to walks, Patricia, so I'm glad you took advantage of it. I read a post on an American blog about these Little Free Libraries and I'm delighted to see they are starting to pop up over here too.
ReplyDeleteHi Patricia, just popped over from Creative Chaos's blog, and we have been paired up for the Christmas swap!! Hope this is OK with you...if so, would you like to swap addresses? Debi x
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place for a walk! Looks to be so quiet and inviting, your photos are beautiful.
