Chris and Karin weren't the only ones enjoying the glory of England's spring. I spent the weekend in the Peak District walking, including a day on Kinder Scout learning to navigate using maps marked only with contour lines - a very interesting way to learn to read the landscape closely. One of the pictures shows an example of the kind of terrain we had to read - mostly peat bog on the watershed.
Very few snaps from the navigation day, but here are a few from the village where I stayed, and one or two of the nearby dales where I walked. The village is taking part in a programme called SOS Village (http://www.bbc.co.uk/villagesos/), and they had a food fair on the Saturday, so I took a few snaps of that. Nothing great, but very typical of such places. While waiting for the bus on Monday I took some pictures - probably too many - in the parish church, which is very large for such a place, but very attractive. In fact, they have more churches than pubs. But the pubs had more people in them. http://www.web-options.com/Tidza/ B -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
