Lake District Weekend

The Big White House, Greengill, near Cockermouth in Cumbria, where DH and i have just spent a great weekend with church friends from where we used to live.

 The view from our window . . . (something about the colours and the arrangement appeals to me)

 . . .but not the only view around!  Off on a scenic drive . . .

 . . . in among the fells . . .

 (amazing colours)

 . . . . and lakes . . .

 . . . Crummock Water . . .

 . . . and Buttermere . . .

 . . . and up to the Honister Pass . . .

  . . .and down again . . .

 Aerial view of Derwent Water near Keswick.

 And we couldn't stay away from the beach, up the coast from Maryport . . .

 . . . with views over the sea, no, not to Skye, but across the Solway Firth to Dumfries and Galloway.
