And I love that ...Some truly magnificent scenes, H! And I love that winding, stonewall lined road! I'd just want to put out an alert for no one else to use it while I was traversing it, since I'd want to take it super slowly and I know there are many impatient and aggressive drivers who'd only be interested in getting from point A to point B as fast as their vehicle would allow with all those sharp curves to negotiate. To me, that's the only real hazard/downer of travelling anywhere...the other drivers can make it so stressful and unpleasant. I'm so glad to know you were able to stop often and take in all those beautiful sights. Having your own coffee along for the added enjoyment is just the cherry on top!Desireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069419364783245762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1735567962622470867.post-43192587631191103522011-10-09T15:08:16.420+01:002011-10-09T15:08:16.420+01:00Like a painting - love that we all can travel alon...Like a painting - love that we all can travel along with you <br />!Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07395890193161794631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1735567962622470867.post-52916711391234952432011-10-09T11:00:30.054+01:002011-10-09T11:00:30.054+01:00Some time when you are up here do try and come bac...Some time when you are up here do try and come back through the Dales and down the A1 - then you would literally pass my door and could call in for lunch/tea/coffee.
