Logging off

Clearing amongst trees
Alice Holt forest

Sunday's sunny weather was the perfect excuse for getting outdoors. After I finished work we threw some food in a rucksack, grabbed the camera and headed up to the forest.

The arboretum on the edge of the forest is one of my places to be, I love it there! We sat eating lunch on a wooden bench looking out at this view. It would have been more peaceful if we hadn't been eating the noisiest lunch in the world — crisp breads and crisps.

Scott looks like he's beside himself with excitement in the photo below. But he was actually running away while I took photos so he could hide and jump out on me. Busted.

Forest walks are never speedy because I keep stopping to look at things and take photos.

When the days get longer we're going to come up here and eat dinner. Roll on Summer evenings :)

Did you spot the log pun. Log. Trees? Hah! Groan.
