CROW POINT & BRAUNTON BURROWS made for a perfect bike ride. It follows the estuary and at the Point turns the corner to the open sea.
the bike ride down the private road was an opportunity for me to take some photos. This definitely needs to be a visit in itself for sketching and some plein air painting.
It didn't take long to ride down to this....
Is it old age, but I couldn't remember the name for those large A-Framed metal things in the field (you can just see them in the pic....then husband said they're called PYLONS...oh yes so they are). |
Husband walked William whilst I sketched
although he was a little bit tired when we stopped for our picnic.

Just look at all that cloud cover, what has happened to our summer? Lovely weather though for a bike ride, sketching and a picnic. oh and a contented lurcher :)
Such a wonderful excursion, Ann.
Ah Ann gorgeous photos and your sketches are wonderful as well. The last pic of William made me smile for sure. He certainly looks quite tuckered out! Have a great day. Hugs!
I know, at one point I thought we were getting a downpour, but it moved away.
Thanks Marie 🙂
Glad you enjoyed this post Debbie. William rested and was then recharged for another adventure, lol.
Super photographs and super sketches too.
The weather really has not been summer like recently, but it's always nice to get out and about if we can.
Lovely post, thank you.
All the best Jan
Wonderful pictures! 'Dutch skies' I would call them, lots of those clouds over here as well.
What a lovely excursion! :)
Thanks Jan, we finally had a sunny day, just hope it will continue. I've noticed the evenings starting to get shorter, and it's still August!
You are lucky to have skies like this Judy. I felt like doing a painting solely of clouds, they looked so good :)
Yes, it was very relaxed too. There were lots of views along the toll road that I want to go back to photo and then paint :)
I get that sudden mental debility too, when I can't remember the name of something I see every day. Ha... PYLONS, yes that's it! I know the feeling. Only too well.......
LOL....Thank goodness this isn't just happening to me! ;)
