The bluebells are now out in the woods everywhere so we went out to Abbotsbury in Dorset today.
I just looked at the trees, never even thought of them as firewood. well, alright, I did give them a cursory glance................
And below is an English Oak which came down in 2010, been growing since 1828.
It is always sad to see something so old down, but at least plenty of people will get the pleasure of looking at the carving.
And I never even thought of it as potential firewood................... Honest ;-)
On the way home, we stopped to take a picture here at Thomas Hardy's cottage.
It was a great way to spend the first day of the Easter holiday out in the spring sunshine!
