The Fellwalker is home

They had a good trip, good weather and good beer at Wasdale Head with good company. Back to reality now, or what I call planning his next walk.

Follow the Leader

Scafell Summit

The Fellwalker is at the summit

Well he has rung and they have all made it to the top. The weather is good, so they should have some nice pictures of their adventure. A bet a few celebratory pints will be drunk in the Wasdale Head later!!

The Boots are being cleaned

The Fellwalker is in the dining area at home cleaning his boots ready for his camping trip to Wasdale with 6 of his work colleagues. They are planning to do Scafell Pike on Saturday. It is the last of their 3 peak challenge (although its not in 24hrs, it has taken a while to organise each peak), they will have done Snowdon, Ben Nevis and Scafell Pike in less than a year.
Will I be bored while he is away, oh no, the Boys will keep me busy and I am out for a meal with Friends on Saturday.

Some wildlife and scenic shots from my wander up to Troutbeck on Friday 20th April

Rabbit at Jesus Church

Looking back to Limefitt

I can't resist taking photos of the Lambs

Yes, another one

Looking down the Troutbeck Valley

I had a feeling I was being watched!

2 for the price of 1

Well it was plan A on Friday, the weather was not too bad. So that was Coledale Round. He was out most of the day and did approx 10 miles.

                                                Grisedale Pike from Hopegill Head,

Eel Crag from Sand Hill

I went for a wander up to Troutbeck and the Chicken & Chorizo stew was really good.

So Saturday he went for plan B, a walk round Thirlmere another 10 miles. Back at 3pm and we had a nice relaxing evening

Thirlmere

The Fellwalker changed his mind this morning, the sun was out and it was warm at 9am. So he has a plan A & B depending on what happens with the weather. I have not just been sitting on the deck enjoying the sun, I have made a chicken & chorizo casserole in the slow cooker and brushed the decking. Now just going to catch up on some e-mails and maybe go for a little wander.

Read our guest book at the Lodge and everybody left lovely comments, but I had tears in my eyes at my first picture from Children that stayed at the Lodge, thank you. We have just been up to the Haybarn to show our faces and are now relaxing in the Lodge. The Fellwalker's mind is on the weather, visibility could be a problem so he is thinking about a low level 10 mile walk, a bit of a stretch as he says!!!!

Well I am now going to stretch for my glass of wine

Back to Fellwalker Lodge tomorrow

Can't wait, back up to our Lodge in the Lake District tomorrow. The Fellwalker has been planning his walks with his maps and books on the dining table. I just cant wait to be back so I can chill and see our friends in The Haybarn Inn
