Sunny Sunday

Yestterday was such a dismal foggy day but today dawned bright and sunny and we spent the morning walking the dogs at Hardwick Hall just across the border in Derbyshire.

Bare winter trees stood out against the pale blue skys,as did the walls of the Hall..........................................

It was rather muddy underfoot but the dogs loved it ..............................here's Coco and Bella inspecting a particularly squelchy patch!  Good job we were wearing wellies!!

and here's a better pic of the beautiful Bella............I think you'll agree she is lovely!

And another more typical Beagle pose..................................

Mid way round our route we stopped off for a coffee break, the views across the park were stunning, not sure that my pictures do it justice. 

Finishing off with the Father Christmas trail

Just to remind us that Christmas is coming soon.............................
