We have been watching old James Herriot DVD's during my stay, and I have been thinking of you at your farm in Yorkshire all the time. I hope you are okay. Why is it that you cannot drive?

You are so lucky to have good friends.Reader Wilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06384603525251159272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-34343457612655809892014-01-21T12:07:07.543-08:002014-01-21T12:07:07.543-08:00You live in one of my favorite places I've eve...You live in one of my favorite places I've ever been to.

We stayed near Reeth on holiday when my girls were very small.

Not being able to drive right now and can empathize with you, and so glad you have had these two little outings and that you have such good friends to ferry you around, - of course it 'takes a friend to have a friend', and that speaks well for you! My daughter-in-law from Summerland is coming to get me tomorrow morning and we are to have a day out in Penticton when I hope to buy a bedside CD player and a small omelet pan - and some flowers from the flower shop, of course, - and some bulbs.....Hildredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420791064923078834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-40078660719359367052014-01-20T21:57:39.171-08:002014-01-20T21:57:39.171-08:00The last Grouse I saw was on top of my roof.

The winter skies this year are making landscapes even more spectacular.<br /><br />Pat- Please could you edit out the following when you have read it. Thank you.x<br /><br />In answer to your question, my maternal grandparents lived in Howsham, a little village near Brigg. My mother grew up there. Her younger sister went to live in Washingborough ( your home village?) with her family, back in the mid 1960s. Another sister lived in Broughton, on the other side of Brigg.<br /><br />Although I grew up on the south coast, I spent several weeks each year up in Lincolnshire. A county very dear to me.<br /><br />When my boys were very young, we spent four years in Adel, just north of Leeds. My OH is a Yorkshireman. We came to know the Dales during those years and also on family holidays after our move south. You certainly do live in one of England`s loveliest areas!Dartford Warblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352965211143836326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-67930272913911620522014-01-20T13:26:30.021-08:002014-01-20T13:26:30.021-08:00Thanks for sharing these wonderful photos Pat - br...Thanks for sharing these wonderful photos Pat - brings back wonderful memories for this Australian, of travelling in England, always excited about what may be around the next bend.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-67770857548827298202014-01-20T13:20:50.744-08:002014-01-20T13:20:50.744-08:00So kind of the weather to allow you to get those b...So kind of the weather to allow you to get those beautiful shots Pat.
