Tiger`s, Tree`s and Kissing gates

I`ve been lately thinking
About my lifes time
All the things Ive done
And how its been
And I cant help believing
In my own mind
I know Im gonna hate to see it end

Words and music by John Denver


I have had such a great day to day, started up at Marwell Zoo, to exercise the legs and have a look at the cats.. (hence the tigers in the title), as it was such a lovely day I travelled from here the pretty way home via Droxford, not intending to stop but just to take in the view on the way, but got as far as Droxford and had to stop, ended up walking along part of the wayfarers walk, down to the river Meon, then back up along the Meon Valley Trail (hence the tree`s), which is the old railway track that part of runs from Wickham to West Meon, great day for some reason made me think how lucky I was in life, hence the John Denver words at the start, been in my head all day long..


Oh yea, kissing gate, was the last gate I walked through at the end of the walk, a kissing gate if you don`t know is a typical gate used on walks ect, one gate that opens in an arc, last photo shows it..


Great day to you all, and to Jess.

Marwell stroll

12 09 09

Stroll round Marwell today, such great weather here shame it wasn`t like this in the summer. Also some of my shots I took on the day of the giraffes were used on the Marwell page which was nice..



Marwell cats

One of my most enjoyable things to do on a sunny day after Sunday dinner is stroll round my local zoo Marwell, just love the cats.

Bank holiday sat

I really needed to get out and get some fresh air and flush out the excess of red wine I have been consumingBlue bells in the woods last week, so a good brisk walk went down well today, went for a walk in the Bere forest near me . . . . . . .. ..
Then a stroll round Marwell zoo in Winchester. Saw something i have never seen in real life before at Marwell, short clawed otters there playing with stones, tossing them round like cats playing with a mouse, nice day in all, updated Marwell page to follow soon maybe with the otters on.
