A Scenic Route

The remarkable weather has continued for a few more days, albeit somewhat colder, but still wonderfully sunny.

This morning, three of us took advantage of this to visit a friend in the country; we were following vague and somewhat misleading directions and became completely lost. When we finally arrived, about half an hour late, we had travelled along country lanes and enjoyed some very pretty countryside much enhanced by the cloudless sky and brilliant sunshine - all the fields were coming to life and flowers were popping up in the hedgerows - definitely the scenic route.

After coffee and some interesting conversation which involved much reminiscing, we returned via the direct route but even from the main roads, we could appreciate the views and say that Spring had arrived.

Cold weather and even snow is forecast for later in the week, so I am pleased that we made the effort to go out today.
