Hello Hello Hivians and welcome to this hunt for Wednesday Walk
And that means sunshine with some warm sun streaming in through the windows.
I fancied making a salad yesterday for dinner but didn't have any greens in the form of lettuce.
I decided to goto the shop via the park to find out!
This then is my hunt for the elusive lettuce yesterday afternoon.
Actually I was going to meet Mrs T from her bus, but I received a text saying her bus hadn't even turned up yet.
Ever the positive me decided to go on a detour before I bought my lettuce for dinner. Heck I might even see some other treats along the way.
It was an opportune time to receive the text as I was walking past the park entrance for cars and buses.
Some people don't read ....
Do you see the ...
... sign and the car parked
I will let them off as it was a school holiday and also 5.30pm so there were buses needing to park there.
So time to walk through the main road in the park.
Dogs were being walked and wee kids were out in force too!
The trees are gradually getting buds and some leaves back, so this view will be much different in a month or so.
Usually I shoot off down to the left and through the rose garden to feed the swans on the boat pond.
There are a few buildings in the park that have this gorgeous rich red paint on woodwork.
This one is a bowling club and here you can see the lawn. Yes it is not ten pin bowling but lawn bowls.
Last year I showed these trees that had a strange looking low hanging fruit!
Loads of fluffing shoes, I think they were cleared as there are not as many trees with them.
The trees are right by the skate park and I am sure it is the local neds that throw shoes up and over the branches by their shoelaces.
Look what I saw across the grass...
Well I had no time to get an ice cream, as my Mrs T had texted that she was on a bus and was making up time!
So it was time for me to scoot out of the park and get that lettuce for the salad!
I always love that church over the roundabout, it has a cool circular building that is hidden by the houses.
Anyway we were here at the grocery store.
Do you see the bright blue sky?
Keep an eye on it!
I guess everyone wanted a salad with lettuce or baby leaves as they were sold out.
Luckily they had some baby spinach which of course is a good alternative. Not too mention some chestnut mushrooms which are so tasty raw in a salad.
Finally Mrs T's bus turned up, and was a double decker and white! Normally it is blue and a single decker. I wonder what happened.
Do you see the sky, not blue anymore!!
We have the sea fog or mist that comes rolling in and we call it the Haar.
It was cold too it was more like freezin fog coming in.
It was tasty, can you guess all the ingredients!
I hope you enjoy mt frolic in the sun on the beach!
