Autumn Colour

Clickychick had an appointment in Newcastle today.  So we decided to take the whole day.  We arrived in Hexham in time for a wander round and then lunch.

We had a walk, as we generally do in the park near the abbey.  The autumn colour was beautiful.  Of a number shots I decided I liked this one.  It was interesting to see a small plaque against an Oak tree which had been planted to commemorate the founding of the Royal Forestry Society in Hexham in 1882 (probably planted about 50 years ago.

Despite a few delays at the appointment all ended well and we struggled out of Newcastle in the evening rush hour traffic.
