A lovely woodland walk/powerwalk

2 Replies

The weather has been lovely and dry here today albeit quite windy during the latter part of the walk, I was out reasonably early this morning and it wasn't quite so windy then. I decided on a woodland walk today and couldn't stop thinking of the first part of the rhyme:

If you go down to the woods today

You're sure of a big surprise.

If you go down to the woods today

You'd better go in disguise!

I do love that rhyme and woods are very surprising places with the different colours, scents and the birdsong, they are wonderful places.

The smell of the garlic was absolutely beautiful today, I couldn't get enough of it. I walked a little further today, more walking than jogging as I was wearing walking boots for the woods as they are a little damp but not too bad. I walked 27741 paces today which is around 13.89 miles.

We are forecast heavy rain and wind here tomorrow so I may not get out, light rain is fine but definitely not heavy rain and winds, we've had a weather warning for 50mph winds, not pleasant when it's wet.

I hope you enjoy these photos, this is the first set, I'm going to publish another short post with the rest of the photos.

Enjoy the rest of your afternoon.

Stay safe and well.

Thank you Ali. I do love the smell of wild garlic and will be glad when I can eat it again. It was a good day yesterday, no rain at all but today, well that's a different matter, it's been pouring down and very windy so no walking today.
