P.S...Gorgeous photographs and a great post, Yorky!<br /><br />P.S. to Peace Thyme Garden from a former Texan - Texas doesn't have bluebells, it has bluebonnets. Not the same flower at all, and yes, they are always beautiful! But it's past time for them. They bloom in March and April.rhymeswithplaguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10870439618129001633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-34118985224078080362015-05-29T10:04:40.289+01:002015-05-29T10:04:40.289+01:00Meike - when I went to your profile and clicked on...Meike - when I went to your profile and clicked on email I was led to starting up Outlook 2007 which I don't want to do.

For a couple of weeks each year many woods are dressed in their lovely violet blue but they are extraordinarily hard to properly capture in photographs. By the way, for me it was just a gentle stroll. If there's a good sunny day next week I will be off for a proper long walk in unfamiliar territory somewhere. What has happened to Google Maps? I wasn't aware there's been a change.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-69793067580443753392015-05-28T22:04:47.959+01:002015-05-28T22:04:47.959+01:00I took a picture of the church (St Helen's), t...I took a picture of the church (St Helen's), the pub - "The Butcher's Arms" and a rather ugly village theatre called The Little Theatre.

I just hate what they have done to Google Maps!! I stopped and took a peek at the Derwent Gallery, tho. How many miles did we cover? I am pretty exhausted. How about you?<br /><br />Your picture of the bluebells is extraordinary!! I wonder if the bluebells will be beautiful in Texas this year, what with all the rain. Hope so. That's about the only redeeming feature of Texas!!Peace Thymehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17361079101751470855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-78798166560536716162015-05-28T18:50:55.832+01:002015-05-28T18:50:55.832+01:00Fantastic pictures from what sounds like a very go...Fantastic pictures from what sounds like a very good walk. I know so well what you mean about the fix! After I'd not been out for nearly 2 weeks because of illness (the 5 minutes to the bakery and the 10 minutes to the doctor's do not count), when I went home from work yesterday, I felt well enough to get off one station before mine and walk the rest. It was knackering because I am still not 100 %, but knackering in a good way.<br /><br />Thurnscoe is where my Yorkshire family originally come from. Steve's parents grew up there and moved to Wath-upon-Dearne after they got married. An aunt and uncle plus a cousin's son still live there. Did you take any pictures there?

For example, what's a Grindle? Or a Froggatt? I guess I could go Google those things, but it often makes me wonder if there weren't really Hobbits in England at one time.<br />Jan Blawathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697621979002856884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-20392900395758392002015-05-28T17:51:11.560+01:002015-05-28T17:51:11.560+01:00Great pictures as always!
