Time for another walk I think
Taken from my web thingy
Wet paws at Kidland
Once again I found myself watching the evening news waiting for the weather , I already knew that it was going to be a wet and windy day come Sunday , but part of me was hoping that something had changed , I don’t really like walking in the strong winds because of my arty leg but I have developed ways of coping (just like many other amputees I expect ) but I was going to cheat and use the shelter of the forest to protect me from the worst of the wind , yes I was going to go back to Kidland forest and explore another section that the forestry people had opened up , my last two big walks had been up here and I had really enjoyed them so why not ? , I had two more routes to do so I figured if the weather is bad why not do one of them ……..seems like a plan to me .
I mentioned this to Bob who was busy snoozing by the fire full trip report at :-

A few photos
Looking along the yoke burn
Looking across to where the foresters have been quarrying for stone for the new tracks?
Looking towards the cloud covered hills in the distance
Our route along the valley looks like this rain is set for the afternoon now.
