Sat 20th May: Big Lake in the rain
Cato:
Hi Aunties! We went to the Big Lake today, and went Tunneling. We haven't Tunnelled for AGES on account of the mud.
But today Mum followed us down there
This is us showing her the way
and this is the entrance
this is just inside. Mum says the white flowers by the path are called cow parsley.
This is the open bit half way down the tunnel
and the light in the distance is the way out.
Mum always falls behind when she starts fiddling with the camera. It takes ages. And then we have to wait for her to catch up.
nearly there!
the yellow flowers are dandelions and buttercups
these are mainly buttercups
and that is Hawthorne, wot had all the red berries before it got really cold last year.
We did lots of sniffing and running about. Even Tara finds the long grass a bit puffy, sometimes.
That's the lake and a REALLY interesting sniff!
Tara wanted to stop here for treats and a drink, but Mum said the bench was all wet, cos of the rain starting.
So she just took pics of the Memory Bench, which is new, and then we carried on in the rain.
This Weimaraner was HUGE and sniffed us both. He was also very skinny! He thought we were rabbits too, until he got close enough.
The rain was all spatty
and Mum says do you remember there was a tree with pink AND white flowers on it last year? Well this is it. Don't know if we have missed the flowers though, this year.
We got a bit wet.
This is more Hawthorne
and these are those wild irises we saw last year too. They were just starting to flower
