Rick and Helens 25th Anniversary walk 22 August 2012


A big thank you to everybody that came to walk and celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary on Wednesday 22nd August and thank you for the presents and cards which were most unexpected. 

The weather was looking decidedly dodgy early evening but fortunately it settled down and turned into a clear evening. 

From my head count I believe we managed 22 and a dog which ain't bad for a midweek walk in the foothills of Kinder, following the Snake path past 20 trees up to the shooting cabin on Middle Moor and cutting down to Kinder Reservoir Dam. Down the steep cobbled track  and along the opposite side of the river, through the campsite and down into Hayfield. 

I had shortened the walk to take in the failing light as we move toward autumn and we reached the Royal Hotel in Hayfield by twilight. I hope you all enjoyed the evening as much as we did
Rick and Helen.
