Saturday and Sunday

We went on a lovely walk on Saturday, just over the road from our house is a strip of Nature Reserve which, though slightly awkward to get to with Meira (down a narrow path overgrowing with stinging nettles), really is a lovely little place.  There were lots of Butterflys around and we could hear many Grasshoppers too, we even saw one briefly.  It gave me a chance to dust off my camera and take some photos too, we did go a few weeks ago when the weather was nice and I took my camera then but I hadn't checked the battery and of course it was flat!  I have put some photos of the walk onto my flickr page on which I hadn't put anything up since the 27th June 2010.  Posting on here seems to be getting me back into taking a few photos so hopefully it won't be so long until next time.

On Sunday Meira and I went to visit Lynn for lunch and to meet baby Tristan, a friend of Lynn's 12 week old baby boy.  What a beautiful baby he is, so alert and strong, so like Meira when she was that age, was she really that small?  It was lovely to catch up with Sally too, who I haven't seen for around 4 years, what with this thought, flickr posting and Meira growing I am definitely having a feeling of time flying by me without noticing it.  I must remember to stop and smell the flowers, or at least photograph them!
