A walk in the forest

Hi all and thanks for our sympathetic comments to my Physio blog, I tried not to make it sound like a 'poor me' sort of whinge, but asking Why the physio, and the lack of info on the merits, as, as Chip says the damage was irreparable anyhow. It is a strange affliction, as although the damage is in the back I have a spot in my ankle and side of knee, that feels like they've  been hit with a stick. ! as well as the stinging which was from the ankle to knee, I used to say it felt like Beethoven's 5th symphony was firing up, and getting to the Fireworks. LOL
Anyhow I thankfully no damage was caused from yesterday's gardening session, and I was OK.
so much so I went out with Sue and our dogs  to-day to a walk in the New Forest,
They have acres to run on and although there are a few places that are boggy, the many pools give the dogs a chance to clean off. here are a few pics..

Poor |Widget would just love to join in.

    Thanks Horst, and Poppy, glad you enjoyed the photos, in my computer they look a bit drab, but then it's a rather brown landscape, and the grass hasn't really greened up yet. I hope to start the painting soon, I still haven't decided which as on WP there's a division of choice too.
