the meadows

Greenscombe meadows looking very green. Devon in the far background (still). This is one of Cornwall wildlife trust's reserves (see link). We will be back looking for orchids and butterflies.

Calstock Dog shows

the Calstock family dog show. This little lad got a special mention, as did Harriet in the crossbreeds. Poor judging in my opinion.
