Remember the days
When boldly we’d go
Where none before us had ventured
With Kirk to captain us
And Spock as First Officer
With Chief Med – now what was his name?
McCoy, that’s right, the real one!
And Scotty – Montgomery – a dab hand with warp-drives
Oh, only a warp drive – did we never dive through wormholes?
Did space not fold, back in the day?
Did entangling photons not speed us
On USS Enterprise?

Lound Lakes, 20th February 2023, Part 2
Last week we left the walk as we skid and rumble down the stony path and onto the road. We pick up the walk from there.
20th February 2023
The road runs between two lakes. But the view isn’t good from there. We cross the road and take the trail across the second part of the reserve
20th February 2023
Here we find a bridge that crosses the lake. But that way will take us back to the road. We go look, but we do not cross

Here’s a good place to watch the waterfowl
20th February 2023
We’re back on the main trail
20th February 2023
This leads us into another woodland
20th February 2023
Hey, close-up pylon, I’m overjoyed!
20th February 2023
This, the third woodland of our walk, is of a different nature. Not much by way of flowers or undergrowth
20th February 2023
We’re about to join another path. Choice here, right into the village, left to head for the bus
20th February 2023
Left also takes us by way of an enchanted pool!
20th February 2023
20th February 2023
And up another hill which delivers us to Hopton where we stop for lunch

20th February 2023
Churchyards are always a good place to stop for lunch… they tend to have bench-seats!
Hope you enjoyed. Don’t miss Tuesday Treat for some seasonal flowers

Flowers, one of the titles from Maria Antonia’s #2023picofthe week
I loved this as I passed it along a village street. Couldn’t resist the photo. But for the privacy of the owner, I’ve blanked out the registration number.
There is a land that’s far away
And in that land my true love stays
Sequestered amongst the endless hills
Hidden from the working ills
Might that rainbow take me there
To that land beloved by bears?
Here’s how it works:
Every Wednesday I post a photo (this week it’s that one above.)
You respond with something CREATIVE
Here are some suggestions:
You have plenty of scope and only two criteria:
If you post a link in the comments section of this post I’ll be able to find it
If you include Crimson’s Creative Challenge as a heading, WP Search will find it (theory) by ‘Searching’ in the WP Reader (fingers crossed)
Here’s wishing you inspirational explosions. And FUN
A few seasonal pics from our walk of 20th February 2023. Enjoy!!!

And we can’t leave the lakes without at least one shot at the ducks…with camera, of course
20th February 2023
Hope you enjoyed. With what seems the return of winter here in UK, it’s good to remember that Spring has come
20th February dawns bright and sunny. Yay! We set out early, although we’ve not far to go, just to the southern bounds of the county. We’re walking to Lound Lakes. This is Part One: the “going to” part.
We thread our way though a little woodland.
20th February 2023
Snowdrops in season, soon to be daffodils, then primroses and bluebells. For now, we’re happy to see through the trees

The woodland delivers us onto a small lane, then a bigger lane…

Where I get carried away taking photos of pylons

And here we arrive… now in Suffolk
20th February 2023
Suffolk is noticeably hillier than Norfolk
20th February 2023
We have no native pine trees. Those that now clad our hills were planted by Landed Country Gentlemen… The birch, however, is native
20th February 2023
20th February 2023
Looking down… the first of the lakes. I’m pretty sure these aren’t natural lakes but are flooded peat diggings, same as the Norfolk Broads

We’ll stop here for a while and take in the view. We’ll continue the walk next week. Meanwhile, don’t miss Tuesday Treats for a few seasonal flowers…

It’s knee trembling
Leg wobbling
Spine shaking
Skin sweating
Mind numbing
Terrifying…
Yet breath-taking
