It's always nice to get out and about, and to start the year off we headed for one of our favourite places......
We wandered around, past the house and on down to the wilderness....
We spied the ponies in their Winter paddock...
A certain someone thought the log shaped like a seat was meant for him!!!
That was a
lovely
walk
to
start
the
year
off...

Beautiful photos. Love the plump little fellow on the sign, and Himself looks like he owns that bench.
thanks for talking us on the lovely walk! Thats a great bench!
Great photos on that walk Ann !
What a beautiful place! We normally do a New Year's Hike but this year it was just too cold!!
Thanks CJ, himself did think it was his, lol :-)
Yes, very cleverly cut out bench...well, William loved it, lol :-)
Thanks Willow :-)
We were lucky, the weather was overcast but not too cold! :-)
indeed a lovely walk!
That portico is magnificent. Great shot of it too!
Glad you enjoyed it Christine :-)
Wish I had got over there to photograph the inside of the house when they had all the decorations up...oh well, hopefully I will get my act together and do it next year (I mean, the end of this year!!!).

Hi Ann, Have just got back into painting etc and was looking for a quick way to sketch my lurcher Scooby. I found your" William the lurcher" sketches and couldn't believe my eyes when I saw William on your dads knee. He's the spitting image of my lurcher Scooby. Love all your sketches with him and watercolour demo. Thanks.
Thanks Sylvie and welcome. How great that you too have a lurcher. I hope I have inspired you to draw Scooby. Do you have a blog or website, I would love to see pictures of Scooby and your painting
Lovely walk! Thanks for taking us along! :)
Glad you enjoyed it :-)
Lovely photos of a lovely place to visit. I like the decorated mossy branches, and the little English robin. North American robins are so much bigger, in fact I think they are a type of thrush. They don't stick around for the cold winter weather, they go south, very sensible birds.
What a lovely walk, and a perfect seat for William :)
Yes, they decorated the place quite well, although we saw it after the festivities. A follower on fb added a link to the American robin, I thought it looked thrush like too.
....and, of course, he thought it was just there for him, lol :-)
Loved your pictures and your buddy.
Thanks carolann :-)
