Join Me In A Dander Where I Live

I am lucky to live here. Sometimes you don't 'see' what's round you and then when you take some photographs it gives a whole new appreciation. This is my usual route with my grandchildren. Yesterday we were collecting conkers (chestnuts)


Found One














Picking and Feeding Brambles to the Dog.
The Hedgerows are laden
















The Majestic Mountains of Mourne in the Background






Pity About the Wheelie Bin





Just beyond the trees Lough Neagh, the biggest Lough/Lake in the UK













Making Friends and Meeting People









The last Bend




And Home






The Conker Haul

It's wonderful having such beauty on your doorstep isn't it. Pity you can't eat conkers!

Clabby - We were in Fermanagh a couple of weeks ago on the way back from Donegal. It is so lovely there. We should have called for a cuppa lol

Oh my, what a gorgeous area you live in and how lucky you are. I am truly envious. Your grandkids are adorable and what a treat to even talk a walk up and down that cozy lane.

what a lovely part of the world you live in - and what a great haul of conkers. There's definitely something special about conkers, they are so glossy and beautiful.

We are so lucky to have green fields, hills and the Lough in such close proximity. Northern Ireland is a nice place to live.
