A walk in the mud

Well what a turn around in the weather. Yesterday was all sunshine and a blessed relief from the grey days of winter, and today was like the end of a hurricane, Im so glad we took advantage of the sun yesterday to get a very muddy walk.



When we saw the state of the path we should have been expecting what came next.



Why didn't I buy those wellies instead of snow boots.

But we trudged on over the field and were finally rewarded with this.



And a little further down the path there was this lovely collection on mini fungi.







I bet these aren't there today after that savage wind.



I couldn't resist these lovely old trees against the such a blue sky, I hope they're still standing.



And lastly on our way back home I spotted this lovely fence that they're laying opposite some very swish allotments that we have our name on the list for, maybe one day.



A belated happy New Year to all the bloggers and family who are kind enough to drop in and browse on my blogs.

You put me to shame - I have been so lazy since Christmas. Lovely photos - I love fungi and there is something very special about a properly laid hedge.

Happy New Year Sharon. Your walk looked very beautiful despite the mud. I hope your snow boots survived! ;-) I love to see properly layered hedge too, those flailed ones always look so wounded.

Happy New Year to you!
The weather has been terrible here, rain, wind and even hail. Tomorrow should be better. Maybe we can have a walk in the mud too. :-)
