More shots of Blea Tarn, quite a lot of people taking pictures and no wonder

Top of the Langdale valley and Blea Tarn

As I said the other day Wednesday was a fantastic sunny picture perfect day and over the next few weeks I will post some of the dozens of pics we took

Hurricane conditions overnight and how the electric stayed on I have no idea.

We had a great walk on Wednesday from Tilberthwaite over to Blea Tarn  on a fantastic sunny day, more pictures over the gloomy November days

A right mix of weather this week frost and snow on the tops and  then gale force winds and torrential rain.
We have had a couple of good walks and these shots were taken looking over Esthwaite Water towards Hawkshead.
The village is all of a sudden very very quiet

After all the rain of Thursday Friday we awoke to a fantastic sunny day,

 Esthwaite Water with a early morning mist.


 Tarn Hill  playground flooded again.







Rain all day yesterday but things look a bit better this morning.

                           

It soon comes round but it was dentist day today for us both, good news no further work needed and no pain, except the cost!!.
Health and Safety gone mad though I was only having my teeth cleaned  and after the check up and I had to wear pair of goggles the dentist had a pair on and the dental nurse donned a full protective face guard, I'm not sure what terrible damage can be done with flying toothpaste!!!!

We then parked up at Brathay and walked along the river towards the church and just before we reached Skelwith Fold we picked up a footpath to Pull Wyke and then back to Brathay.
