Happy Birthday (tomorrow)

to athenais!

(no subject)

One last, fairly short walk today, from Totley up over Blacka Moor to Fox House, and then down through Longshaw and Padley Gorge to catch the train at Grindleford. There was an amazing collection of butterflies -- several peacocks, a tortoiseshell and a painted lady -- on a patch of thistles by the path.

I'm off early tomorrow morning, to catch the train to London to catch the plane to Chicago and thence home. If all goes well, I should be home by about 9pm Tucson time.
