"What is it that makes the way you see?"
"The way you are makes the way you see."
(Ben Okri, 2017)
The ivy in full bloom, covered in Red Admirals and bees, lovely. On Whitehill Tor, which is easily passed by. To explore the wonderful oak woods round Lee Moor and on to wonder how the Wotter Common china clay waste has been so swiftly recolonised. Past the pond which the geese had just left and round. To find a nice spot for a cuppa as the mist cleared from the Sound to reveal a full fleet. On, all the way to Saddlesborough and Luxton. And then, back by Hawks and Collard before diving down into Higher Lee Wood and round, back to the cars.
The Farmyard Cafe provided a very fine venue for lunch.
