Here are some of the photos we took on the 13th August after our walk in the formal gardens.
Warning - I am fascinated by decay and fungi so feel free to skip the middle part!
I hope you can see why this has become my favourite place to visit at the moment!
It was our 20th Wedding Anniversary at the weekend - we didn't have plans to go out to celebrate so we ordered some of our complex chef's Fish and Chips on Friday.
Of course I am joining Bleubeard and Elizabeth of The Altered Booklover blog for T Stands for Tuesday.
We had our fish and chips with mushy peas and I added salt and vinegar to mine. They were definitely up to the usual standard!
We had our usual water to drink.
Our eldest son and his wife are in France at the moment working on their Manoir in the Dordogne.
They are on both Instagram and Facebook and I have found I can access both even though I am not on Facebook. It does ask if I want to join but I just click on the X
If you want to take a look at the manoir and it's surrounding area and the work they are doing (they are working so hard)it is called Manor Arc-en-Ciel or can be found through Google.
I am so looking forward to visiting next year (it was supposed to be this September!)
I have been in my craft room today and been quite productive but I will leave posting until tomorrow.
Thanks for looking, Chris
Lots of choices for your walks-that's nice I enjoy see all the fungi too
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed all the photos-Happy T wishes Kathy
Your walking paths look serene and enjoyable. The many shapes and colors of fungus and mushrooms make them tempting photo subjects, and you got some good shots.

Happy belated anniversary. I like the hubby's new goatee. And fungi is fascinating, isn't it? I don't think we're going to have much this year as it has been so dry so I enjoyed your photos. And I'm off to see the Manoir. Have a super T day Chris. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteYou won't believe this, but my internet has been offline since about 3 pm my time. I'm glad I had my post ready to go, because I couldn't get online.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated anniversary. You must be so happy after 20 years with T. Too bad your plans to return to Fletcher Moss didn't pan out. But it was fun following all those paths with you. I am glad you showed the decay and fungi because that is new growth taking over from old dead trees.
Looks like you had a lovely anniversary meal. Now I'm hungry for fish and chips. Mushy peas sounds good, too. T looks good in his mustache and beard. Thanks for sharing your walk around Fletcher Moss and your anniversary meal and water with us for T this Tuesday dear friend.
hm first comment failed. Great pics, love the funghi! happy anniversary for last weekend. the fish and chips look good, but you can keep the mushy peas; no thank you!
ReplyDeleteThat is quite some nice area where you live! Oh, and happy belated Anniversary.
ReplyDeleteYou produce a Santa Clause there? 🎅
Hmmm, Salt and Vinegar, YUM! Happy T-day!
Yummy fish and chips, that's something I miss here! You can buy it, but it doesn't taste right. Wonderful pics from the woods, I love the Aaron's stab and the fungi. Happy belated anniversary! Have a great week, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteI love seeing woodland shots and paths yet to be traveled on ~ Fungus is a bonus too! Fish and chips ~ Yum ~ Enjoy your week
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary! What a lovely place to wander and so many paths to choose that I can see why it has become a favorite place to return to. I am fascinated by fungus, mushrooms, and moss, too. ;)
ReplyDeletea day in the life... a glimpse of that day and the people who mean the most to you

Such a beautiful woodland walk and all the fungi look fabulous 😀. Your celebratory fish and chips looks so yummy! Happy belated anniversary wishes to you both and wishing you a very happy T Day too! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteWhat an inviting area for walking! Happy Anniversary :) I'll always say yes to fish and chips. Thanks for the link. I've "liked" their page. It looks like a wonderful experience for them. Happy T Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all...Happy Anniversary! I enjoyed your decay photos very much. Strolls through the woods are the best...with the exception of the biting insects that tend to attack.
ReplyDeleteHappy T day!
Happy Anniversary wishes to you both. I hope you had a good day to celebrate. The fish and chips looked delicious.
ReplyDeleteThe photos from your walk looked lovely, I can see why you like to visit there.
Happy T day Chris.

What a fabulous place and your photos are superb. What struck me is that there were no other humans around. A place like that here has hundreds of people. Hiking here is not fun. However, I do see why you like this place. Enjoy your evening.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! Your trip in the woods like a fun and exploratory time. I LOVED seeing all the fungi. Mushrooms are so fun to look at and eat.
ReplyDeleteHappy Tea Day,
Kate
Beautiful walking paths. I love seeing all of the green. Happy Belated T-Day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful walk.
ReplyDeleteThank you for pointing me in the direction of Manoir Arc-en-Ciel. I enjoyed looking at the photos of their project. What a job! But I can identify with them as we have been in a similar situation. Only they are a lot younger and will get the job done at some stage. I assume they live in France permanently, and that they work from home. Good luck to them. It looks absolutely wonderful!
Happy belated T-Day,
Hugs,
Lisca
I love the walk in the woods. So many different paths and scenery. I enjoyed seeing the goings on a Manoir Arc en Ciel. A lot of work, but I"m sure it will be gorgeous when it's finished. What a lovely vacation spot you will have to visit. Happy Anniversary! 🍷💐 and Happy T Day, too. ☕
