Devon

This is a blog about our holiday in Devon
My favourite place to sit and wait . I found this more relaxing just listening to it as my DW did some shopping .We attended a craft fair at Bovey Tracey , which I must say was fantastic . It seemed a big change being on the other side of the stall.My DW had a go at knitting with needles the size of brush handles and I was shown how to spin wool the way they did it with adrop spindle.
Her we were invited to a knitting group meeting , and they did ask us before we travelled down there to take some of our goods. Wool dyed and spun by my DW and my sock blockers ,here you can see her doing buisness around the back of the car.

Heading home across Dartmoor , this little creature came into view . We had to stop to photograph it , I don't think it was very old. But it's mother turned her back.

The veiw over the river Exe at sunset I had to photograph as I do intend either painting or doing in pastel . Any sunset or even a picture with reflection looking across water still or moving I really do like.

Coming home on the M5 is this man. I think he is called the Straw Man .I had camera out ready to take photo of a large creature in the trees near to him , but found you can only see it when travelling south.
