A Long Round Trip........


Monday was our 46th Wedding Anniversary and so I asked Herself what She would like to do to celebrate the day.  The answer was "let's go to Dartmouth!"

It is many years since we went there so I agreed that it would be very nice to do the trip.

We drove the 104 miles from Ilfracombe, and when we got to Dartmouth it was mega - busy. and we managed to get a parking space on the quay but it was only for an hour (long enough to get a pasty and a coffee at the place shown above).

We then travelled along the coast road to Plymouth (via Modbury) and covered another 30 miles.  Once in Plymouth we stopped at ASDA and had another cup of coffee and purchased some fuel, then we drove back to Ilfracombe (over Dartmoor) which was another 102 miles.

So although we covered quite a few miles, it was a good day and it was lovely to spend some "us time".

06/09/21 My Ideal Day

Hi and welcome I hope that you have had a wonderful weekend - I know that I have!   So I thought having had such a great time I would devise a list of things that make up my ideal day! I wake up naturally and take my time preparing to greet the day ahead. I visit the bathroom, wash and clean teeth and spend 5 minutes in contemplation I dress and make a cup of coffee then  I write both my journal and my gratitude list  I visit my to do list and start working towards completing the things I have to do I clean my cameras ready for the photo shoot(s) that are booked I write any emails that I need to send    and read over my blog notes / planner    and having done this I start writing the new post After I am happy with that it is time to have lunch and then say bye to Alison if she is not coming with me. I (or We) leave the house and choose which vehicle we will use - if it is a country shoot we will probably take the Range Rover but if it is a town / city ...
