Spring

Clear out the old stuff!! I am busy sorting and tidying, recycling and freecycling.
Clearing out the clutter so that I am able to do things properly !
The Oily One seems to be turning over a new leaf too - bedroom almost clean and tidy, washing done, even making coffee for me!!
The Carpenter is...getting oily. You can't win them all, as they say.

Plants are beginning to grow, and the ground is starting to smell a little earthy.
Yet...yesterday on the mountain it was lightly snowing.

Knitting

The sock progresses...

Escape!

I went away!
I met new friends and saw even more snow! I decided to stay IN the car to take photos...
Then to Aberystwyth to see the sunset

I had hoped for a return refreshed and eager to resume life back home...but no welcome, no-one had lifted a finger in the house.
Perhaps I should go for longer next time.....

snow walk

The snow retreats slowly
It depends upon how much sun and footfall
In the canal the ice still lies beneath the surface as it rains

trees in the snow

snow walk

As you walk up from the village the salt and grit
gets spread thinner
so this is what I mean when I say mountain....going up,,,
and up. Now just the tracks of snow chains, a 4x4 and walking boots are here.
coming into the light, and going further up...
up round the bends...
and up...
view across Cwm Gwyddon
coming up to the last, steepest, incline
snowy fields
Here you can see the difference that altitude makes

forest road
going back down the path to the village

a busy week

A sky warning of weather to come
and it began, so more knitting was done at last..I need more socks!

No digging yet...

Not that much in the village but enough for people of all ages to play with!

A break in the clouds yesterday



The difference that snow makes..

More snow..walk curtailed.

Instead of complaining, make the best of what you have. One can get on with what is needed
when the weather changes
