We have been fortunate to here when the beautiful autumn weather has arrived and are attempting to take full advantage of it. The days are splendid - incredible blue skies framed by the peaks, the air is cool and fresh - just cool enough to make it enjoyable to sit in the sun for a picnic. The forest even in the middle of the day is dark and cool and the trees are in full leaf with just a hint of a change happening. Stock are fat and shining and pastures in the high mountains are drying off and looking as though they are in need of a rest. Walking is brilliant and we are recovering our mountain legs, slowly and painfully at times as we are inevitably either climbing up or scrambling down !!
