The view from the top site |
It was another day of field work accompanying G and his M.Sc. students S and F. But in between doing four circuits between the bottom site and the top site carrying tools, I managed to write almost 5 handwritten pages, planned the next sequel and scene and also read quite a bit of a novel. |
It's not the first time I've successfully worked outdoors, and it certainly was a beautiful location. I came back very relaxed and not at all mentally tired, though my legs felt a bit trembly, as well they might because the going underfoot is treacherous up that slope as what looks like a nice grassy path is actually grass growing over and through the remains of the last lot of felling. I think the term is "brash", but it's all the small branches that weren't worth hauling out, which by now are throughly tangled and in places becoming rotten. |
Walking down to the middle site. |
There's the most wonderful collection of mosses up the hillside, thick and cushiony and sopping wet. There are also millions of midges, but I remembered the Mosiguard this time and so came back unbitten. Just below the bottom site. |
