Gorgeous blue skies here today :)
Lately we've been taking Spencer for some lovely walks on Rodborough Common which is only a few minutes away. We've found routes near to us that we didn't know existed. One of the wonderful benefits of dog walking...
We're also getting fitter by the day and are seeing things we wouldn't have noticed before..
Like these lovely flowers on the common..
Pretty cowslips.....There's hundreds of baby ones all over the common....
I don't know the names of these but they're very pretty - does anyone else know what they are?
As we are walking up there most days, it's lovely to see the little changes happening...
And of course, Spencer loves his walks....
He's so gangly when he runs now... it's hilarious - he's all legs! (Spencer not Chris!) :D
That's Rodborough Fort in the background. We are very gently increasing Spencer's walks from week to week as we don't want to overstretch him but we're looking forward to taking him on the circular walk that leads around the Fort.
It's going to be a gardening day for us today...must make the most of the sun before those cold wintry showers return....
Last week, Chris assembled our new little greenhouse..........
And I planted some seeds - veggies - tomatoes, peppers, squash, courgettes and some flowers -nemesias, rudbeckia, geraniums, mesembryanthemums...
Whilst I was seed planting, Chris was busy preparing our veggie patch......
toiling away... he gets all the best jobs! ;)
Today we're planting our veggies :)
.....carrots, parsnips, leeks and potatoes.....
I'll keep you infomed if anything grows!
That should be a 'when' not an 'if' - must think positive - of course they'll grow!
Have a lovely Easter!
