The Yorkshire Dales

Photography – the Dales

We met up with friends for a few days walking, talking and drinking in the Dales! Great fun.

Day 1 – it rained! But what do expect? It wouldn’t be green if it wasn’t for the rain.

If you click on the pictures they blow up into much better shots.

We stayed in Austwick at the Game Cock – nice beer and food!

Bolton Abbey – A beautiful setting.

The Yorkshire Dales is one of the World’s most beautiful places.

There seems to be a fertility tradition for young girls to swim in its icy waters! Glad it’s just girls! I wouldn’t last five seconds!

I’m leaving my body to medical science but it was worth a look. I quite liked the idea of the standing stones. I like standing stones – but the real ones not fabricated ones! Still……….. place looked quite nice and preferable to those graveyards. I like the idea of being recycled – perhaps Soylent Green is a possibility??

The Yorkshire Dales – Up the back lane!

Does countryside get more beautiful than this?

We took a walk through the Yorkshire Dales, exploring villages and off to the Ribble Valley viaduct.
