Yesterday afternoon, we walked down to The Pond--a spot that is a bit out of town and that used to be a very popular swimming spot. It's just a sort of pull-out off the road with a couple of picnic tables and a path heading down towards the water. It was very quiet and the view was stunning.

After we admired the view for a little while, we headed back towards home. Twenty minutes later, we were at the shore walk where it was still beautiful, but in a different way.
I'm really grateful to have such beautiful walks on my doorstep, especially now.





So beautiful and looks so serenely quiet and peaceful.
ReplyDeleteYou r very lucky indeed Shari ☕
That I am!
ReplyDeleteIt is very beautiful indeed, thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteIt was a nice walk.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that there are so many places to walk was one reason we moved here, even though at the time we made the decision, we didn't know what was coming! We got here 6 weeks before the first lockdown and having varied walks on our doorstep ended up being more important than we had thought!
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous photos. Lovely places. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Brenda! It was a nice afternoon walk.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous afternoon walk, a lovely area.
ReplyDeleteThe photographs are wonderful.
All the best Jan
