A Beautiful Weekend of Weather

Last weekend I think we had the best weather in the UK, we had two days of wall to wall sunshine so we made the most of it with a couple of walks.
On Saturday we headed over to Loweswater, the route we walked is one of the patrol walks we have done a few times in the past, but today we were just going for a walk.
We set off on the track for an extended loop around one side of the lake

We last walked this in July last year & this fingerpost was broken & lying on the ground, it’s satisfying that the jobs we report do get done.

Crag as always never misses an opportunity for a splash in a beck

Whiteside & Grasmoor (where we would walk on Sunday)

Lovely to see all the snowdrops out

Ouch, you wouldn’t have wanted to be around when this came down

Loweswater Fell which surprisingly is not a Wainwright

Now a few other random photos, Crag looking a little disgruntled that Dizzy has decided to lie on the mat whilst he is looking out the window

The floor was being cleaned so the bed was on the settee, she will sleep anywhere

It’s been a long day (note his tongue!)

Sticking out the front this time

Taking up much of the settee (you can see how much she has grown)

She could sleep on a washing line

Lastly we tried her in the boot with Crag when we returned from Ennerdale yesterday, she has stopped slobbering when she sits in the front, guess she will have to get used to travelling in the back.
