Mount Edgecumbe on a Saturday

Feb 12, 2017 20:36

We decided to go over to Mount Edgecumbe on Saturday, since the weather forecast was good.  Of course, when Saturday arrived, it was snowing, but we thought let's go anyway.  And in fact it was quite pleasant down by the sea, although it would have been a sunnier day today.  Here's the folly and Drake's Island and Plymouth in the background.

Great pictures. It does look like a lovely visit. I love Rosie in the coat! All of the outside pictures exude coldness! It's feeling very wintery here this week. Spring has to be coming, because I am really starting to feel the winter in a not good way. I like the stable-turned-restaurant.

It was so chilly! I sort of wished we'd gone today instead, for today the skies were blue and everything felt much warmer, at least in the middle of the day.

Rosie is an Artist of Sitting And Looking Away Disapprovingly.

She really is. You can't confuse it with just sitting. It is sitting with a MESSAGE.

I do feel that clothing a dog with such tendancies in imperial purple is just asking for trouble. :-D

A vote for video of Brythen walking in a comedy manner while wearing a coat!

What is the remnant of some tower on the 1st picture? It looks beautiful. Do you happens to know what it was or why it was ruined?
Camellias! It seems it's spring already in England. How I enwy!

It's gorgeous, isn't it? It's a folly - it was built to be a scenic ruin, in the eighteenth century. But the stone is from an old church from across the river, so it looks very real...

I don't think the spring is quite here yet, but it's starting.

I love scenic ruin!
