L is for Lovin’ Life Right Now…

14 Apr

1st shot

A heavenly, green, smiley, lush weekend away in the mountains.

No writing, stressing, shouting or fannying around on electrical devices (apart from camera and a few pics via Instagram, I was camping not dead!) to be had.

I am now home, unpacked, wined-up and happy.

We got a few raised eyebrows from the locals at our stick carving escapades but only one laceration was to be had.

Not bad considering we had five overzealous young carpenters whittling away.

We scrambled up a valley and discovered an absolutely stunning little pool! Fab-u-lous!

We found frog spawn… Ughhhhhhhhhhh, no those are NOT my fingers!

We walked through the mountains and talked, sat and marveled at the beauty around.

The children also moaned, teased each other, stamped on a few tiny creatures and said a few bad words too…

My little hiking demon who managed to walk almost two hours without winging incessantly (he left that to his siblings). 🙂

Something beautiful and furry, which the children managed, remarkably, not to kill even after dropping it numerous times.
