Walking the Essex way

Yesterday my friend and I walked towards the gravel works, on the way we were able to take some ok pics.
First, we had the bindweed with droplets of water, then we get quite excited when we spot a pyramid orchid we were wondering the other day if we were going to find any, so now we are happy, from then on things improve, even though it was quite a grey morning but the scenery was, as always quite impressive.
It is always fun watching the hares charging around the fields, of course, the wildflowers always light the way. Oh, my friend and I had our first taste of the cherries which are now ripening and they were quite delicious.
The gravel lake with the swans the trees and the scented mint looks great we love seating here, watching the wildlife. Such a shame that all of this will be gone when the dreaded road will be built across  our beautiful countryside.

Walking the Essex way

My friend and I are still walking the footpaths of Essex way, I know I have not been writing much about our adventures lately but have been a little too busy.
We are quite worried my friend Paula and I with all the houses that are going to be built on our neck of the woods, the footpaths that we walk through, will be no more.
Our Village at the rate it's going! won't be a village for much longer, and our beloved footpaths will be gone.
