Mud walking

I think we've done a new kind of healthy exercise today, mud walking! Not the kind where you go to a tidal area and wade waist-deep in mud (have definitely done that a long time ago on school-camp in the Biesbosch in Holland), but the kind where you plough through puddles and muddy roads and try not to slip. Be very careful, DJ said and then promptly he slipped and slided. No real harm done apart from very muddy trousers. And an hour's worth of energy burning :-) As you can see there was even a blue sky and some sun, but apparently the weather forecast is now going back to showers and even wet snow possibly.

Thanks very much for your kind comments, stars and faves for the Highlander duo yesterday. They do have their own area, both meadow and woods fenced off and with cattle-grid entrances for the nature-lover who wants to see them from a closer distance. They're used to people but you don't want to come too close to them!
