Brrr still cold but at least its dry.
Friday and only one room to arrive, they checked in mid afternoon so we could have a walk up to Moss Eccles and then down to Far Sawrey passing Fold Farm and having a bit of a crack with Graham the farmer.




The pumpkins at Sawrey Stores.

The other day I bought a scary mask in preparation for trick or treat, boy did we have some fun with it, we had 2 visits from trick or treaters who I scared the living daylights out of before giving up the sweets and then we had a visit from the poppy seller, she is still in shock, but fancy knocking on doors in the dark on Halloween!!!!!

Off to Kendal today via the Windermere ferry we took Denis & Margaret's car into the garage for a MOT and glad to report it passed with flying colours.





Snow on the high fells but it seems we missed the worst of the wintery weather.

Winter has arrived early with a sharp frost in the morning, the sun then broke through and made a good but cold afternoon.
I helped Denis strip out the garden walls and take down all the hanging baskets and generally tidy up the garden for the winter, we just need to plant some winter flowering plants in the next few days.




Far Sawrey with Wilfin Beck in the foreground.

It has been a fantastic sunny autumn day in Sawrey and the temperatures are dropping fast.
We have had reports of minor roads blocked by floodwater but I think most roads are now passable with care.

I took this shot of a rainbow over Esthwaite Water on my walk to work this morning.





We had a walk up to Moss Eccles and then back down into Far Sawrey and called in at Sawrey Stores late this afternoon.

Sunshine after the rain, good title for a song!!!
