A real proper Dartmoor evening to be out with Ciarán gently barrelling in. Out from Joey's Lane where sometimes there are glow-worms - not tonight. Through the gate to get the benefit of the weather. Steadily up to Sheepstor disturbing a Jack Snipe on the way. Quite a nice blow and wet on the top. Down the back with lights at the Scout Hut and further. Easily following the edge of the woods as the wind whistled in the trees. By the stile and into Rough Tor Plantation. Always a great place for fungi and plenty around this evening. Along by the windy track then just what is this? A huge, smooth road - yes its those pesky loggers at it again. They seem to be able to find trees just everywhere in a forest. Round and down and then a loud 'crack' as a tree fell. I always wondered what noise those snapped trees made when they came down and now I know - always worth going out. By Narrator Farm and round under Sheepstor and back. A jolly exciting evening.
