Thank you so much for your favs and your real comments.
Under a blood red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspapers says, says
Say it's true it's true...
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one

FLOWER - GATHERING
Robert Frost
I left you in the morning,
And in the morning glow,
You walked a way beside me
To make me sad to go.
Do you know me in the gloaming,
Gaunt and dusty grey with roaming?
Are you dumb because you know me not,
Or dumb because you know?
All for me? And not a question
For the faded flowers gay
That could take me from beside you
For the ages of a day?
They are yours, and be the measure
Of their worth for you to treasure,
The measure of the little while
That I’ve been long away.

Down the players tunnel at Turf Moor
Burnley FC.
The Burnley players come down these steps onto the hallowed turf to massive rapturous applause and cheering at the beginning of each game.
This always makes the hair on my arms and neck stand up. I love to see the Claret & Blue.
Football is my religion
Turf Moor is my church

On to the hills
This country lane runs past our house and up to the farm houses at the foot of the hill.
The hills were part of a stone quarry in the past.
Some of it has been transformed into mountain bike tracks, and pump tracks etc. It’s very popular.
It’s called Lee quarry.
I’ve been up on my mountain bike a few times, though it’s a hard scape. I prefer forests for mountain biking in.
Happy Fence Friday #HFF

At Beadnell beach
After spending a few hours having a look around Bamburgh castle we took our little fur baby, Patches, down on the beach for a walk.
It’s a beautiful sandy beach at Beadnell, as you can see.
People were flying kites, sailing on wind propelled surf boards, and generally enjoying themselves.

A nighttime view of the Austin Central Library as seen looking west from the pool deck of the Austin Proper Hotel & Residences in the 600 block of W. 2nd St. In the foreground below is the 2nd Street (a.k.a. Butterfly) Bridge.
Central Library is the main branch of the Austin Public Library system, which includes 20 branches, the Austin History Center, and a recycled bookstore. Often referred to as Austin's "Library of the Future," Central Library opened in late 2017. The six-story, 200,000 sq. ft. building is designed to hold over 600,000 books and offers a living rooftop garden, reading porches, an indoor reading room and a bicycle corral, large indoor and outdoor event spaces, a gift shop, an art gallery and a cafe. There is even a "Technology Petting Zoo," where visitors can toy with some of the latest gadgets.
In 2018 Austin's Central Library was selected for TIME Magazine's 2018 list of World's Greatest Places! Culled from over 1,200 editor and expert nominations from around the world, the list highlights 100 destinations that are breaking new ground, leading industry trends and offering visitors an extraordinary experience.
The library and bridge are at the center of the larger Seaholm District Project which has transformed a formerly industrial section of southwest downtown Austin into a vibrant urban neighborhood.

Yesterday we went to visit the ruins of a castle called Harbottle castle.
This is a photo of the village which I took from the castle ruins.

What could be better?
Tracey and me and Patches took a nice walk along the nature trail at Ribby hall. It’s not far, just a couple of miles. But lots of it is on a path through beautiful woodland. This photo is just at the start before enter the woodland.

On a Friday evening in June
Me and my wife took our border collie, Patches, over to Towneley park at Burnley, for an evening stroll.
On the way there was this beautiful sunset, we just had to stop and have a good look at it.
I just had to take this photo.
Here’s a quote from my favourite poet…
When the spent sun throws up its rays on cloud
And goes down burning into the gulf below,
No voice in nature is heard to cry aloud
At what has happened. Birds, at least must know
It is the change to darkness in the sky.
Murmuring something quiet in her breast,
One bird begins to close a faded eye;
Or overtaken too far from his nest,
Hurrying low above the grove, some waif
Swoops just in time to his remembered tree.
At most he thinks or twitters softly, 'Safe!
Now let the night be dark for all of me.
Let the night be too dark for me to see
Into the future. Let what will be, be.

Our view at sunset!
My wife looked up from reading and commented on the beautiful sunset through the trees as she looked through the window.
We both then went out onto the deck and admired the lovely sky.
I took some photos.

"Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity." - John Muir
"Mountain Music" is a song recorded by American country music band Alabama, written by lead singer Randy Owen. It was released in January 1982 as the lead-off single and title track to Alabama's album Mountain Music. A joyous and energetic song celebrating the traditional music and simple pleasures found in the mountains.

While sitting at my desk this morning a memory popped up of a 2022 visit to the Galápagos Islands. A lovely daydream indeed.
The Galápagos Islands are a volcanic archipelago in the Pacific Ocean, famous for their unique and diverse wildlife, which played a pivotal role in Charles Darwin's development of the theory of evolution by natural selection. Located approximately 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador, they are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a living laboratory for scientists and a captivating destination for tourists.
Charles Darwin's visit to the Galápagos Islands in 1835 on HMS Beagle was instrumental in shaping his understanding of natural selection. He observed the unique adaptations of species on different islands, particularly the variations in finch beaks and tortoise shells, which led him to develop his revolutionary theory of evolution. The islands continue to be a crucial site for scientific research on evolution and ecology.

Just as it started snowing.
I’ve been in Ye Olde boot & shoe many times, including last Saturday; but I’ve never been in the Jolly Sailor.
The pubs are known locally as ‘The Boot’ and ‘The Jolly’.
