Moving on



Over the last few months we have moved very little, but yesterday we made a fifty mile journey into Shropshire. Our stay in this area is intended to be quite brief, but having no firm plans we will wait and see what happens. We are located adjacent to the Shropshire Way and so Meg and I have done a little leisurely walking taking in the change of scenery. We walked to some nearby high ground and stood for several minutes, taking in the view across the Shropshire plain all of the time being watched by a Buzzard riding the thermals on this pleasant spring day. Every now and again this buzzard let out a loud mew, as if objecting to us intruding on his privacy. As we walked back toward the truck the sun seemed to be sinking fast, the air began to chill and I could tell that tonight there would be another frost. When we arrived at the site the sun silhouetted the trees on the horizon, I took a few shots, getting very muddy feet in the process but it was worth getting moaned at for leaving mud on the carpet again.
