Breezy walk along the coast yesterday.
Trying to get me & the dogs fit for longer journeys.
Tad short of ten miles.
I was hoping for some big moody seas but the best waves where on the North coast as per usual.

Charlestown

The view from the coastguard lookout between Charlestown & Crinnis towards Blackhead.

& Crinnis beach

A belated armistice post.  & almost a week after 13/11/2015.  A day of tragedy for the world not just our European neighbours.  The reaction from that has been predictable & will only escalate the troubles.
So lets think about the real victims of war.
The innocent civilians who have lost their homes livelihoods & in many tens of thousands of cases their lives.
Lets spread peace & hope, just like tiny poppy seeds simple thoughts & gestures can grow into something beautiful.

 

After the Rains

After three days of pretty heavy & monotonous rain I knew the river at Pontsmill would be in spate.

When I was here in the summer It was an easy wade but yesterday I couldn't even get to the waters edge.   As usual if you click on the image & then right click/view image to see full size.
