Love all the photos and the new look to your Blog!
The romany caravan was lovely, I;m trying to persuade my Husband that we can build a shed to look like one LOL
Lovely photos from the mump, I forgot my camera last time!
When you were up on the Tor looking towards the west, did you notice that big heart in the side of the hill below? I'm not sure what its planted with, but I shall ask around and let you know.
Glad you managed to recharge your batteries x

Ah, just tripped across from my blog (thank you for following me)and so pleased I did. The look of your blog; the array of different things you include which all somehow share a tone of heartfulness and vitality; the music... much here that I aspire to and can be inspired by. Thank you.

I recognised most of the places in your photo's especially the Chalice Well pics and of course Burrow Mump, which is very close to the site where King Alfred burnt the cakes (bread).
You have of course raised many memories for me as I lived in Somerset three times in my life. The first time in Burnham on Sea for 2 yrs, other places in between then to Paulton in North Somerset and for 12 yrs Glastonbury - as the song goes 'Yes I remember it well '

Annie said...

Hello :D All your lovely photographs have just taken me right back to my Somerset childhood, when the Bath and West show was an annual summer treat. Happy days :)

gz said...

Welcome! I take it you found me via Kath at Hillside Cottage?

I think I'll have to go to the Bath and West next year, and visit Glastonbury very soon.
Lovely post

Just found the blog. Lovely pix and feel. Will keep travelling with you. Love the Owl pix, among my favourite birds. We lived in northern Sweden where the biggest - Eagles, Great Greys - were near daily sights. Also Snowy Owls in neighbouring county! The cat looks delightfully laid-back and the WHippet is lovely too. Know Chichester fairly well: we've many friends around Arundel, Rustington etc, from our Uni days at Sussex in the early 70s. Best.

What an amazing journey, your photos are inspiring. Seeing the gypsy caravan must have been wonderful and the precious animals.

I see you love animals, think you will enjoy my blog, do say hi when you get a chance!
