Blakeney

Today we got up and drove to Blakeney and took the dogs for a walk along the marsh paths.  It was bright and sunny but with a cool breeze.  It was wonderful!
I particularly was intrigued by the boat skeleton.   The boat had lots of tales to tell, if only it could speak?

Then it was on to Holt to visit a friend.   She was delighted to see our two dogs "Gunner" and "Morgan",  we spent a nice time chatting in her bookshop and then purchased some wonderful books.


The bookshop is Holt Bookshop and its a real treasure trove!  The above was just a selection which we ended up buying.   The book "Drawing Nature" by  Agathe Ravet-Haevermans should help me get to grips with a ladybird which I have been putting into a art piece I am doing.  So hopefully it will make it on to my blog soon.   :)   

All in all it has been a good day.

  1. Your boat skeleton is really beautiful. I love the weathered wood and that some of the boards have rotted away. You are right, there are lots of tales there. Thanks for sharing your outing!
