I have successfully planned a quiet route to get to, through and around my local woodland area. I have even worked out how to navigate the blind corner I mentioned in my previous post
All walkers I met on my walk today were mindful of social distancing. They, like me were seeking out quiet walkways.
Along the way I found bluebells, what more could a girl ask for

Exploring a new pathway to my local woods. Hoping to avoid the crowds. It wasn’t entirely successful. On the main wide pathway two people were walking towards me so I stepped aside from the pathway. Social distancing. They carried on spreading out to fill he wide path. A cyclist at speed arrived around a blind corner and chose to cycle at speed between myself and the two people on the path. In doing so his face was just a few inches away from mine.
*sighs*

The new pathway is a winner and I will be exploring it again, to gain access to the woods

Despite the current lock-down our local town improvised to celebrate VE day with social distancing throughout the town. Due to the efforts of of local people the town was decorated with bunting and poppies. A plane displaying the message ‘THANK YOU HEROES PAST & PRESENT’ flew overheard. Midlands Today recorded the events including streets that had arranged parties to celebrate VE 75.

Later in the day our street enjoyed a social distancing party to celebrate the day from our front lawns. The current restrictions have brought our communities much closer together, a perfect spirit for VE day celebrations.

Much later on there was ‘Fine Dining’ on the patio watching the sun go down, the stars emerging and two bats flitting around.
A perfect day

A warm sunny windy day lead me to adventure out on a different pathway.
After recent difficulties most of my local pathways have resumed to normality and are less crowded. I am back in a place where walkers, cyclists and runners respect each other and in these current times respect social distancing.













Happy Days
