Harvest deliveries

 This afternoon we delivered 8 Harvest baskets to the elderly residents of Taddington. It was lovely to see them and to see their smile especially as some people have not had many visitors these last few months. We waved at them and told them what we were raising money for (at a distance of course!). We were lucky enough to get a little more money towards our goal of sending 2 cows to Africa. 

We had a lovely afternoon and it was nice to do something good for the community.

Enjoying a welcome snack break, we listened and watched out for curlews, skylarks, blackbirds, buzzards and crickets.  We spotted many wild flowers too.

Adventurous activity 1: Let's try abseiling

Image
For our first activity, we headed back towards Taddington and the Monsal Trail at Millers Dale - familiar territory for us. We exchanged tales of walking, cycling and pony rides down the trail.  None of us have abseiled before, so we're not quite sure what to expect. We listened carefully before getting our harnesses on.  The instructor checked we were all safely buckled up and ready to go. Hmm...some slightly worried looks.  Here we go. Who's brave enough to go first? The bridge over the River Wye is 80 feet high and the first challenge is to climb over the railings.  We did it!  Now we can relax.
