I love the Oregon coast, it is where I grew up as a child, I moved to Seattle, but my heart never left,
Another early start for Tony and I saw us at Windy Post on Dartmoor in time for a glorious dawn display.
For centuries this lone cross has stood upon the bleak moorland with just the murmuring Grimstone and Sortridge Leat for company. English Heritage notes on its Pastscape Record that the cross is of medieval origin and date it to between 1400 and 1499. It would seem that the purpose of the Windy Post was to act as a marker of the Tavistock to Ashburton trans-moor track which in effect was an early medieval route which connected Buckfast and Tavistock abbeys.

Night shot of a woolly lemur. This is the only time I saw this type of lemur on my entire Madagascar trip.
The woolly lemurs, also known as avahis or woolly indris, are nine species of strepsirrhine primates in the genus Avahi. Like all other lemurs, they live only on the island of Madagascar.
With a body size of up to 20 inches long and a weight of up to 42 ounces, the woolly lemurs are the smallest indriids. Their fur is short and woolly. The body can be grey brown to reddish, with white on the back of the thighs, with a long, orange tail. The head is round with a short muzzle and ears hidden in the fur.
Woolly lemurs can be found in both humid and dry forests, spending most of their time in the leafy copse. Like many leafeaters, they need long naps to digest their food. Woolly lemurs live together in groups of two to five animals, which often consist of parents and several generations of their offspring. Males and females live in pairs.
Like all indriids, the woolly lemurs are strictly herbivorous, eating predominantly leaves, but also buds and, rarely, flowers. Overall life expectancy is not known. – Wikipedia
