Dear all

We have had days of rain and days of lovely sunshine.With the rain I got a little flu but when the sunshine came back I really had to be on the road again.The new pictures are from yesterday when I was on my daily walk.Sorry the battery and the power ended up.But 2 pictures showing my home and a little of my favourite place where I love to walk along show you a little of my world just now.
