David Hill just up the street from me - it’s a nice escape from life, the internet, etc. I’m actually doing a bnw photo project of the vineyard buildings etc.

Hope you're enjoying your stay here Amy. Don't forget to visit Brantwood - home of John Ruskin, while you're by Coniston. Well worth a look. Big wave from Pabi in the Yorkshire Peaks 👋🏻

Yes, I went there! I’ve done a deep dive into Ruskin on this trip, that old radical.

Love the sheep sounds. So different from what we see on American roads. Wishing you happy trails.

Some places in the American west still have large flocks that can take over the roadway during certain times of year!

Ohhhh! Loved this, Amy! Those sheep! The pubs! Artist-in-residence where one resides! (Hmmm, what could I draw as the artist-in-residence in my little 'hood in southwest Austin?) Enjoy every second of every day in such a beautiful place. Loved this post SO much! Thanks for sharing such wonderful inspiration from you and the others whose work you posted. Yay for Life!
