Walking in Lovely Weather (5/9/24)

We have had our first 70+ degree day for this visit to the UK, and it actually felt like it. Bob and I were both in shorts, and we were both in short sleeves by this afternoon, lovely! We had two walks with the dogs and also walked a couple of paths that Bob had found for us on his phone.

First, Bob took me by a house that he passes every morning with the dogs. It has a beautiful wisteria tree on one side.

Then we headed towards the God’s Quarter section of Bury near the Abbey, Cathedral, and St Mary’s Church.

The path along the River Lark, one of 300 chalk streams in the world, of which 85% are in England

After we walked along the River Lark to a main thoroughfare, we retraced our steps and then headed out east of town on a number of nice paths to the community of Moreton Hall. We were surprised how quickly we seemed to be in countryside.
