Our adventure in the miniature world done,
we headed back in the direction of Slough,
with the intention of exploring Burnham Beeches
on the way. First though, I had to have a photo
of the old pump at Farnham Royal.
I used to ride my bike up to where it stood
in the centre of a cross road, and I would sit
for hours with my sketch pad and pencils.
Seems it disappeared for 21 years, and has been
in its current location since 1993.
More about it and the area here.
Burnham Beeches,
a beautiful woodland where we used to picnic in the "good old
days".
It has been the location of many movies, including the very old Robin
Hood, as well
as the more recent Kevin
Costner version.
Cuppa time at The
Dell, before exploring the woods.
Bill and I did the same thing three
years ago. (Last pic)
I'll try not to bore
you with too many "tree photos", but I have to put some in
because
it's such a pretty spot.
I love that
"dappled" sunlight...
... and there are some really majestic old trees.
One of the ponds.
I'm almost positive
this is the same area where
these (9th and 10th pics) were
taken.
Maggi has short legs too !
