With my bread made and cooling (I don’t know how long it will survive with all my kiddos at home), my husband and I decided to pop out for a bit. We headed down to Aberlour, with our bikes for a lovely evening ride to Carron, along the Speyside Way.
It was so nice cycling through the trees and listening to the river, which runs alongside the track. As always the views were spectacular and the smell of freshly cut hay gently wafting on the breeze, was amazing. This route has been beautifully maintained and the paths are fantastic for hikers and bike riders alike … We even came across a few bike service stations along the way .
On arrival at Carron, we discovered another welcome and unexpected surprise.
The local community have turned their old telephone box into a lovely snack stop, complete with an honesty box for donations. With drinks, chocolate bars and cereal bars available, it was a wonderful treat, in a beautiful spot. A big thank you to the people of Carron, for such a wonderful idea, we really appreciated it …
Finally we headed home feeling relaxed and recharged, and as expected, to a quarter loaf of bread - it never lasts long in our house .
With a few more chores to complete, it was time to close up the greenhouse and take a few moments to enjoy the midnight sky …
I love this time of year and today was a really good day … :)
