Fairly quiet day

This morning after breakfast I went for a walk complete with sketchbook. Passed these geese on the way to the grass you can walk on near the fishing lake.
I started a sketch but hadn’t really thought it through. Although I can sit on the rollator I couldn’t reach the paints if I wanted to colour the sketch.  I did try to add a bit of colour but in the end finished it off back at the lodge.
When I came back I walked to the cafe with Tina and we had a nice coffee and piece of cake.
This afternoon I decided to go for a walk and walked through the park and out onto the road. Well, strictly speaking the pavement by the road! It seemed to be threatening rain.
Took some pics in a lay by.
There was quit a wild are along the way.
Back in the lay by I noticed this tree.
Back at the lodge the swans and then moorhens came on to the grass area opposite.
We fancied a short trip out so made out way to the River Hull. Over the bridge and then a bit of a walk, not that far as it was very uneven ground and I did struggle a bit with the rollator.
We came back and cooked tea. Relaxing now and we will go in the hot tub again in a bit.

  1. Looks like another really nice day away for you. The scenery is certainly very nice. I do like the sketch you did, even if you did have to finish it inside 😊
    You really will miss it all when you have to go home, but maybe you’ll get there again at some point. It’s definitely a great place for picture taking too. Some really nice ones this evening. I really like the two with the boats on the water. Very idilic.

  2. It was a very restful day, feels like I have been here more than two days. Tina has really enjoyed her break so I imagine we may be coming again some time.
