SOMETHING ABOUT DARTMOOR: It’s NOT About THE BONNET!

Revised Sunday, 23rd. January 2022——due to misbehaving links!!!

This blogpost serves as a quick ‘Insta’ round-up of my most memorable Moor walks in 2021.

They start in reverse order——looking through a ’round window’ —— at my first Moor walk of the New Year to Prewley’s windswept Beeches —— Tuesday, 4th January 2022 —— then it’s a gentle amble back through the Old Year that was —— eventually arriving back at the ‘start’ at ‘Teign Gorge’ in April-time —— after the longest Winter lockdown.

I celebrate my Dartmoor round-up of 2021 —— with a special, much-treasured Christmas gift that I was given by my talented embroideress niece, Araminta. https://www.instagram.com/p/CYIqo0ZoO2Z/And finally, a fab album I bought on eBay last year that’s fast become my driving CD these days when heading for the Moor —— as well as homeward bound – especially love #01 La Maison. It’s such a jaunty instrumental piece that’s perfect for bucketing along the country roads to and from Dartmoor!
