Lovely walk at Burton Constable

I went to the bakers early and we both made pack ups to take with us to Burton Constable as Darren was helping at a ‘Have a go’ day with the cherry club and I used my pass to go for a walk. A few years back I had walked down to the lake, so decided to go there again. Quite a long walk amongst the sheep. I thought this tree hd lots of crow nests but some were quite low so presumed it must be ivy or something.
Passed this garden sculpture that I would really like in our garden!
Lots of pics but will start with one which is a bit iffy, there were lots of sheep droppings and they attracted some unusual flying insects, not the usual flies.
I sat in the orangey and had my lunch, I was a bit chilled by then a the wind was cold.
I did do a sketch in there.
I looked round an artists exhibition, some were. Bit weird but some I really liked, I didn’t take pics of them all.
Then I went and watched the archery for a while and did another sketch!
As I felt a bit chilly I went and read my book in the car for a while as Darren wa still helping people try out the archery.
I did get put in the garden for a while nd cleared an area around a tree, but don’t need any more pics today!

  1. A lot of pics today. It does look a nice place. Great if you fancy a reasonable walk. I do like the pics of the lilys. It looks like you almost had the place to yourself. I bet it was nice sitting in the orangey for lunch. Shame it turned cold for you. I wasn’t keen on a few of that artists pics. The parts of the buildings weren’t bad. I did like both your sketches though. Not a bad day, and still fitted in some gardening 🙂

  2. Not many people braved the cold wind and walked to the lake. There were lot of families but they were concentrating on the kids activities around the park.
    The water in the lake was so clear, really well maintained.
    I thought a couple of the building pics were pretty good, they weren’t for sale, most of the exhibits were.
