You'd be forgiven ...

... for thinking that you had stepped into a prehistoric world, where the only sounds were those of flora and fauna.

This view (or variations of it) greeted us at every turn on our dog walk this morning.

Am feeling very relaxed and happy. So much seems to be slipping into place and making more sense now that I'm away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

I even managed to fit my workout in around two dog walks, a coffee and an op shop shopping sesh.

Tea now and then off out with U to a meeting with her fellow-church-going-types.

Night all.
