However, I set off with my camera and I'm so glad I did. It was nice just to slow the brain down a little, breath in fresh air and have a little sun on my face.
After showing you our largest oak tree, this is our baby at
16 years old. This is the one with its
own certificate as it was grown from an acorn found on the Great Oak tree to
mark the millennium. I was contemplating
how long it would take to reach the telephone wires. I might just have planted it in the wrong
place.
I have yet another picture of the mountains to show you but
it is landscape and wouldn't fit in the frame so I will save it for another
day. This Thursday is the start of the
famous Hay Literary Festival when the small border town of Hay-on-Wye will be filled with
visitors and celebrities.
Before we moved here (over thirty years ago) this
rhododendron was already established and still going strong, it is about to be
covered in these beautiful flowers.
Talking of beautiful flowers, on a part of our drive we
can't get at to mow, this cow parsley waves mockingly at us. It is, however, rather splendid when in full
flower.
