Heading to the weekend

So, Monday's gentle stroll? Turned out to be just over 5 miles uphill over boggy ground! Well, not all the walk was like that, but over half of it. It all started out so well. After a lovely breakfast sat outside in the sunshine we drove along a lovely single track road and parked up onthe Cumbria/Yorkshire border. 

The weather was glorious and the views were fabulous. 

We set off on a fairly good path.....

.....but then decided to head up the hill .....

It seemed to get wetter the higher we went! But, it was all worth it to be out in such lovely countryside onthe sunshine. 

We stopped for lunch at what appeared to be the end of the path. 

We started heading back when I had the bright idea to head for the nearby summit. Me and my bright ideas. We ended up giving up as the ground was so wet we just couldn't find a way through, especially with Oscar. So we turned round and set off back to the van. 

Time for a nice cup of tea and a biscuit before heading home. 

And the rest of the week so far? Work, walking Oscar, running and crafting ......
