First walk of Autumn

This afternoon, after a cracking roast chicken lunch,  Flo and I left Rob and Scarlett at home to enjoy our first walk of the season. We popped up to nearby St Helen's Woods to look for interesting leaves for a collage and for Flo to hunt for fairies. In this little glen she gave a pretty thorough examination of the tree and fungi, before declaring "there is a little fairy asleep in that leaf so we must be quiet." Other gems included "I love all the beautiful things in the world, Mummy, like trees and leaves. How do you make colours? Why it is called a tree?" We waved to the horses and ducks, picked some flowers and were home in time to catch the afternoon movie - Charlotte's Web. Wow that spider sure can spin.
