31st: Family walk

31st: Family walk

The family walk went ok, 3 families and Shirls parents out. Very slow progress was made because the boys were playing with the ice, breaking off icicles and  shattering great panes of ice from the puddles. The frosty trees were amazing weren't they? It almost looked like spring blossom with the ground losing its  white frost cover first.
The photos show in order, Niamh (walk photographer), ascent from Shaw farm to Mellor Cross, frosty trees and icicles*
