We didn’t go down for breakfast today as we were going out later. We left about eleven to go to Burton Constable. Had a drink with Darren in the cafe before he went off to the archery competition and I wandered off for a walk. I decided to walk down towards the lake this time, did that walk once about three years ago. It is across a large field and it looked lovely when I got to the water.
The moles had been busy!
Another shot of the bridge and one as I headed back through the field towards the house.
I passed this tree on the way to the orangery.
Sat inside the orangery for a while and did a pencil sketch, challenging perspective!
I was asked to present the prizes again at the end of the archery competition.
Took a picture of the sky as we were leaving and then a Peterborough sky thanks to Mike this time.
Back in time to get dinner and now a relaxing evening with a couple of programs to look forward to.
I’m sure it won’t be long before you’re back down at the seafront. It’s hard to stay away for too long as it’s always nice there.
ReplyDeleteShame you didn’t get out for breakfast, it’s become a family occasion of late. You’ll have to have extra next week to make up for it.
Burton Constable does look a lovely place and perfect for a walk. Bet it gets quite busy in the summer months. Personally I prefer this time of year, with less people about and the nice fresh weather encouraging you to walk a little quicker 😊
I like the sketch. Like you say, not quite so easy as it looks with the complex perspective. 10 minutes?
You’re fast becoming part of the archery club. Prize giver in chief!
Hope you’re enjoying the programs.
It was perfect there today, not too cold or windy.
ReplyDeleteBit more than ten minutes!
They are a nice crowd at the archery club.
