I've seen Fire and I've seen Rain

O'er hills and dales
... discovered that her little Urana legs were not used to great big hills – although the view at the top always makes it worth it.
It was a great weekend of fresh air, sunshine, good company and country-ness. Herry kuhs (hairy cows) , sheep and tractors everywhere.
It may be a bit of a cop-out but Malham is a gorgeous little town in a really pretty area and a picture tells a thousand words so here are ...
