Fossils, Strawberries, Patchwork and a Pig

So I've shared my Somerset patchwork block with you but what about our little holiday?

Our camp site was at the foot of the beautiful Quantock Hills....

What glorious weather we had for those few days we were away?!

The sun never stopped shining :)

Here are a few of the things we got up to..........

Lots of dining (and a bit of drinking) al fresco!

I love it when the weather's good as Chris likes to take charge of our little gas barbeque and I don't have to cook!!

 

Visiting the animals where we were staying.......chickens, sheep and pigs...this muddy one was fast asleep in the shade.....

Some patchwork of course.....

The beautiful Somerset farmland........

Chilling out under Harvey J.....

And under my Wool-eater blanket........yes that's my knees!

Pretty cornflowers....

Fish and chips for lunch.......

....whilst watching the boats in Watchet's pretty harbour.....

Walks with Spencer in the evening sun.....

Strawberry fields.......for as far as the eye can see.....

Relaxing with more patchwork and Chris carving a sculpture from wood.....

Visiting the spectacular Jurassic Kilve Beach........

.....with it's extraordinary rock formations of limestone and shale.....

.....and fabulous fossils...............

......we found some ammonites but there are reptile remains too.....

I definitely recommend a visit if you like rocks, fossils, rock pools.......the kids will love it.....and so will the dog :).............

Also time for a spot of knitting.............

And on the last day, a delicious cooked breakfast of course ;)

See you soon,

Maggie xx
