MORNING WALK

The rain has stopped so we can get back to morning walks. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday I walk with my long time walking buddies Helen, Maureen and Joan. Maureen and Joan felt like they needed a break on Tuesday and Thursday. However, Helen and I wanted to do every morning Mon-Fri. We have met two other girls, Lee and Dianne, who walk everyday so we asked if Helen and I could join them on Tuesday and Thursday.  Lee and Dianne walk in the forest. So yesterday we walked in the forest. It is still dark when I get up at 6:00am but it is light when we start to walk.

6:30 Daisy Hill Forest

Helen sets a good pace and knocks down the spider webs for us. She is the tallest one of us.

The sun is struggling to wake up.

On the way back its much lighter.

It is depressing though because even with all this walking I'm putting on weight 

probably because I eat too much.

I cooked sausages and mash, Bill's favourite meal.

Another favourite is spaghetti and meatballs.

THEN THE SUN CAME OUT

We have had rain for a week and I was not able to go for my morning walks with my friends. However, today the sun came out so at 6:30 in the morning chill we set off for our walk through Priest Gully. There was evidence of all the rain that we have had.

Back in the village the flowers were drenched in raindrops.

Later we went for coffee at "Coffee in the Woods". It is a timber showroom with a coffee shop inside. It was something different.
