Good Wednesday Morning Ladies,
Lucy and I had a lovely day out at Batsford Arboretum yesterday with Benji & Boo, it was really just to get the dogs out of the house full of builders, Lucy was getting frustrated that they kept tripping the electricity off first thing too, which the girls found frustrating. Lucy was at ours at 8.45 ready to go! We got there and I had booked a '4 wheel tramper' (all terrain mobility scooter) which the lady told me they tested by taking a couple up Snowden, it was lovely to be able to be alongside Lucy as we made our way around some of the 60 acres of parkland, the views were breath taking! It felt good being out in fresh air. I loved that they have every tree tagged with its name and when it was planted. There were so many different trees around the park, lots of Acers which are one of my favourites trees as the leaves are so delicate.
This was one of the many different Acers.
There were sculptures all around the park.
This is a picture of the Anne Frank Horse Chestnut tree, it started as a Sapling from the Original Horse Chestnut tree that bought joy to Anne Frank from her Attic window, sadly the original tree has succumbed to disease and storm damage.












Gorgeous photos and a great way to get the dogs out of the way too and not be wrecking the house
ReplyDeleteI’m a bit stuck crafting wise at the moment The painter/decorator is prepping the hall stairs and landing So I can’t keep dashing up and down to my craft room Hopefully I can do a bit this evening when OH is out playing bowls - it’s his birthday on Saturday and need to do his card!
Take care everyone xx
