The Davises get Lazy September 17, 2006

Today was called on the count of weather. Holly and I went into Keswick did a little planning work at the internet café above the post office before having lunch at a small local café. Sensible Holly had a baked chicken breast with salad. I had steak and kidney pie. It tastes just like chicken….no not really. It tastes like a beef pot pie with just a hint of liver. Hmmmm good!

After our lazy afternoon in town we drove back to the Howbeck Lodge with just one slight detour. We spied a road on the map that ran up a valley toward the high country. The narrow country lane gently climbed toward the ridge at the head of the valley passing pastures on the left that were walled in by the steep mountain side on the right. The lane soon paralleled a fast flowing stream and the picture was complete. We stopped and enjoyed the scene for a while but a wind that bordered on cold had picked up and a drizzling rain began to fall. Back in the car we headed home.
