Have wheels, will travel...




One of the things i miss most, since my stroke, are my early morning walks...
But my dear hubbie bought me a scooter off ebay, and my spirits soar each day i can get my 'nature fix'...
Saturday evening i took my camera to capture some favourite things - the trees are at the end of our street; the lavender is in a neighbour's garden...
just getting out on my own, feeling the breeze on my face, stopping to pause - are what makes the day sacred.
tomorrow i'll share some more pics...

Don't listen to Mrs Nesbitt, Claire!! You really need to keep it under 50 KMH.

Well, okay...70 if you are in a hurry.

It's such a joy to see your broad smile as you motor your way on your walk!
