A dry morning here in Ulverston and a bit milder too. There are daffodils blooming in the garden at Wellhead! And I have seen plenty of snowdrops too. It will not be long, I suspect, that the magnificent display of daffs along the foot of Hoad on the A590 will be giving all of us their lovely annual show!
I always try in spring to visit St Cuthberts Churcg in Beckside, Kirkby to admire the beautifu carpet of crocus in the churchyard. Gorgeous. I also travel across to the Duddon Valley to see the " host of golden daffodils " on the meadows leading down to the river. Nature is truly wonderful. Why not do so yourself? I feel sure that you will not be disappointed. Take a flask of coffee and a sandwich and revel in this wonderful part of this natural world in which we are privileged to live?
