LE JOG

[Nigel]

So much for getting the band back together. For much too long now, it seems I've been out here on my own.

Another month of solid northward plod on my increasingly lonely trek across Albion's fair isle. My route through June took me out of Manchester towards the Yorkshire Dales, spending a happy sojourn at Horton-in-Ribblesdale, where I undertook my first ever geological field trip beneath the slopes of Pen-y-Ghent.

From there it was downhill from the westward Pennine slopes towards Oxenholme, through Kendal (stopping for some well-deserved mint cake) and then over the hill to Windemere, where I ended the month admiring the view across the lake from a lovely spot near Ambleside.
