I invite you to come with me on another walk in my neighbourhood.
Today instead of turning right out of my house we have turned left
Then left again at the bottom of the road where we will turn right onto the main road
through my district
We have turned right and are making our way along the main road
We have crossed the traffic lights and are continuing on for a few hundred yards
We are not going into this park today which is on our left but we are
We have crossed the traffic lights and are continuing on for a few hundred yards

I am always amazed at the different moods and colours that one encounters on such a short walk depending on the sky and whether one is looking towards the sun
or away from it
Here are some great examples of this
How different these will look in a couple of months
then again in the Autumn
Looking back with the sun behind
Looking up to the sky
It's beginning to cloud over but the birds are singing as loudly as ever
This is the point where we will turn round as it is very cold and nearing lunchtime
This squirrel stayed where he was
But his friend ran up into the tree
They were interested to know why I was taking photographs
Having told them they were for my blog site,
and when they showed interest, I gave them the address
When I opened up my computer after lunch
there was a lovely E-mail from Ronald and his wife
saying how much they enjoyed the site and how they would be spending
a lot of time reading it. They also sent an Autumn photo of this very spot
So thank you Ronald

But his friend ran up into the tree
As I turned out of the gates the wind chill made it bitterly cold as the wind was blowing
straight on to my face.
I was looking forward to lunch,which being Saturday, was quite simple
Pasta with a Roast Vegetable Sauce
Topped with Chopped Bacon and Grated Cheese
and served with
A mixed Salad and Black Olive Ciabata Bread

Yes, some of the tree photos look very familiar!
How lovely that you met some new friends on a walk and that they'll be reading.
I'll be so glad when walking can ensue again. To walk now, I'd need to go to the shopping mall and join the heart patients, but that's definitely an option.
Enjoy your weekend!
Barbara,
Isn't it interesting how my just a wee bit of a different angle a picture changes so much....I enjoyed my walk and the lunch sounds absolutely delicious.....
How fortunate the couple stopped to chat and now have access to your blog....many blessings in store for them......Betty
Barbara,
Once again, I felt like I was right there. Although, I am warm and did not get a nice lunch when done. Your photos are really good.
Your new friends are going to like this blog as it is full of inspiration for the eyes, soul and spirit.
I saw the heading for the next post, and it looks like I am going to Blenheim Palace, next. I'm excited about that.
Another lovely walk Barbara ~ I hope that you were warmly dressed against that wind chill. We had minus 18 C wind chill this week and it was freezing!!!

I enjoyed the walk around your neighbourhood and park. I bet you really enjoyed your lunch when you got home.
Thats nice that you have a lot of open space near your home.
Love the pics of the squirels, they are so cute. We have a lot of them where I live, my dogs try to catch them (luckily they never succeed), now in the winter, the squirrels have made a nice winter home underneath our nice warm hot tub.
I so enjoyed my walk with you today. thanks for taking me along!
Boy was that a very nice relaxing walk and I needed it. I have been inside all day long. The pictures were wonderful. I am so glad you made some new friends. Have a good weekend. connie from Texas
Wonderful time on our walk today. I enjoyed seeing the squirrels and noticing the changing views of the trees with you!
How enjoyable to walk around your neighborhood with you! And how cool that you met some new friends who have already visited your blog...
Where are we going tomorrow? I think it's time for me to do another walking blog; perhaps I'll go to the park after church, if it's not raining.
Thanks Barbara for the lovely tour around your neighborhood.I would have loved to walked with you! Thanks so much fo stopping to visit. Have a wonderful weekend and stay warm. Love & Prayers. Lisa

Lovely to have that open space. Thanks for showing us!
Hi Barbara,
So sorry I haven't been by very often. Hope you understand why. I do appreciate your faithful comments..
Loved seeing the lovely area in which you live. The photos of your walk were a treat.
We still make our daily walk a priority and find that it helps lift our spirits..

How lovely to see where you live Barbara!Thanks for sharing your lovely country with us...Sharon :-)
What a lovely walk Barbara, as always. I so enjoy "walking with you". I'd love to come to your yummy lunch as well! I had peanut butter and jelly... a staple around these parts with my six-year-old!
How lucky you were to see the squirrels and take the picture. I love the photos with the bare trees and the sun shining through. Thank you for this nice walk...
