Today I needed to get a loaf of bread and to post a couple of letters. The weather was glorious so rather than drive I decided to combine my trip with a local walk. I took the quieter routes that gave me opportunities for social distancing if I met someone coming in the other direction.

Bird Bath Delights
Yesterday, two weeks behind schedule in my #walk1000mile challenge I reached 300 miles. Many of my recent walks have been around my garden. Over the Easter weekend the leaves on ‘My Oak Tree’ have exploded into life. Truly amazing!

Chapel of the Holy Spirit – Sheffield Cathedral
The open arcaded design of the new St George’s Chapel allows a view through to the upper part of the Chapel of the Holy Spirit beyond.*

Easter Saturday
My word for how I feel today is ‘inspired’ even though I didn’t have time for a walk, not even a garden walk.
Mr C and I spent the morning tidying up our garden. We were pleased with the result but there is still more to do. After our efforts I sat on the patio enjoying [...]

Good Friday
On the very eventful Good Friday, Jesus was betrayed by his disciple Judas and arrested, then hauled before several different authorities—first the Jewish religious leaders, then the Roman governor Pontius Pilate. Sentenced to death, Jesus was crucified alongside two criminals. Upon his death, he was buried in a nearby tomb.
Matthew 26:14-27:66 New International Version (NIV)
