red squirrel tales

By mmac

Dry skies...almost.

Blue skies on awakening meant cycle time. Hurray. Cabin fever has threatened so it was nice to explore the backroads of East lothian.
Spotted 1 squashed frog, 1 road kill pheasant, 1 hairy caterpillar (alive-I swerved to avoid it had almost made it to safety) a buzzard (alive) two men in tweeds, moustaches and shotguns, countless pheasants (alive if they managed to stay away from the men in tweeds, and a some intriguing birds I will look up when home.
Whilst berating myself for cutting my route a little short after i saw the clouds, as i skimmed the edge of the rain taking a mild dousing, and looked back from whence I came I was pleased I'd made the right decision.
40miles done amongst puddles and Autumn golds I arrived at North Berwick for a delightful tea and sherry fest with Archie and family.
Salvaged my wet and lost holiday I think.
