52/365 Walking in the Rain

I took the picture yesterday at West Dean Gardens, an interesting bit of wood with a rotten centre that went the entire length of the trunk. The only link between the picture taken yesterday and today was that it was raining on both day.

I just thought it would make an interesting B&W picture.

Today, Elayne and I went out for a walk. We were on a mission. We were compiling clues for a Treasure Hunt being put together for Elaynes Women’s Institute Group.

The follow on to Storm Alex arrived over night, and persistent rain has been one of it’s primary deliverables. It was, to coin a phrase, chucking it down all morning. But we needed to get it the treasure hunt sorted. So we walked out taking the route to test the clues.

I must admit it was lovely to be out, even though it a raining quite heavily. Of course, you need the right clothes. In my case this is a weatherproof coat that I bought in 2012. I remember the data because of the olympics and that I needed a coat because we were on holiday in the Lake District.

I enjoyed the walk far more than I should have done.

I just want to write, but I prefer to stay away from controversial topics like politics. I am happy to confess that at the moment, I am writing for me. If you enjoy my writings, and I hope you do then that is all the better.
