I find it a great leveller during times of contemplation because it shows you life carrying on through the vigours of the seasons. It offers an interesting comparison between the animal kingdom and ourselves, we can learn a lot from a simple walk. Good luck, I am touched that this blog offers a little respite. Miles Annie,

Between you and your mum, I feel tons better. Thank you for sharing. Your posts on days spent in nautre are truly wonderful, and this comes from an old English teacher who would have loved having a student who had such insights as you do. Miles,

In recent years I would have been travelling in Asia around about now but taking time to look at what is on your doorstep makes you think twice about another long haul trip. Miles Elsie,

Some of the best times of my life have been spent on my own, fishing and walking around the English Lakes without a care in the world was really something special. Miles Cid,

There is joy and beauty around us if we bother to look for it and not necessarily on the Costas. A very enjoyable post and may you have many more good days like it. Elsie Miles,

There is more on our doorstep than we give credit for and we are lucky for that. A job is a job the percentage of people who actually love their work must be minute. It's there simply to support us and hopefully leave enough left over to finance days like above. Because that's all a job is that's all it should be considered as. Do your time then make the most of your free time. I look forward to more articles on day trips in Lincolnshire and places to visit in Lincolnshire RegardsRod Miles
