Gather ye Rose Hips

The advantage of not doing a walk for a while is the surprises you get when you go back - like these rosehips covering a bush where we go into the Newhall Valley.

Looking up rose hips on the internet, have decided I'll try to go back and pick them tomorrow. Apparently, compared to oranges, they have 25% more iron, 20-40% more Vit C, 25 times the amount of Vit A, 28% more calcium, plus bioflavonoids, Vit E, B Vits, etc etc - PLUS they're local, unlike oranges.

Bit of a "day after" day, plus preparations for the thing I can't tell you about for now. Eldest daughter's birthday - I think it's the first time we've not been together on this day. And taking a video of our youngest doing TWO ice-bucket challenges.
