Enough


You know I love reoadside grass.  We've gone quite a long way down the road, time we headed back to the caravan park and my warm cabin. We are not quite done yet, i have a few more shots back at the camp.

    I love grasses too. These definitely look blue with cold.
    I would not have ventured out of my warm cabin even for blogging.

    Is that a ray of light in the background? Whatever it is it looks fantastic amidst all that blue.

    Simply glorious. There's usually a good measure of tranquility in your photos, and this one has it too. I love how peaceful it is.

The end

I retire from the workforce this week and to celebrate have decided to retire my current blogs and start afresh with a single consolidated blog -  My Bright Field  - to record the delights of my new life adventure. If you are interested follow me over there.  I will still be Sweet Wayfaring and collecting Royal Hotels.  The delights I discover along the way will appear together with my gardens and towns where I live.

Larras Lee
