Beautiful Day
A really nice August day with blue skies and light winds. When you see the devastation in New Orleans USA it makes you realise how lucky we are. We get a few wet days and are complaining. Not a very busy day at first but then the we had a full garden and people looking for tables. We went for a walk down the Dub and through by the church.
