I took Molly to my mum's on Friday night as the walking we had in mind would be too much for her. So yesterday morning we headed off with Oscar to Patterdale, and the start of a walk through Grisedale. The sun was shining but it was very cold.
Oscar had a bit of fun with stepping stones, deciding to use them instead of wading through the water like he normally does ...
There was quite a bit of snow on the tops, but we opted to stop before then and warm up a bit with some lunch before heading back via a slight detour (to get a geocache!).
We finally made it back to the van before it went completely dark, and then went straight to the hotel.
After a delicious meal of fish and chips, and a taste of the beer they had, it was time to call it a night.
Today we had breakfast in the hotel before setting off in search of another walk. The weather forecast wasn't good at all for today, and by the time we'd got some distance down the A6 after Shap we could hardly see anything for mist/cloud cover. So maybe not a good day for a walk.
However, not to be put off by the weather, we put on our waterproofs and set off. It turned out to be quite a good walk, despite the mist and drizzle.
We didn't stay out a long time though, heading back to the van for lunch before heading home.
I have a confession to make too 😕 on my last post on 21 January I forgot to make an announcement- it was my One Year Blogging Anniversary!!!!!! A year already! And there was me thinking I might last a few months. So I'm really pleased that I've kept it going and that I know some people look at it 😊
Such a lot has happened in the last year - it's nice to be able to look back through my posts and relive it all again.
I wonder what the year ahead will bring ..........
