Happy Holidays

Hi everyone, hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, ours was ! We just relaxed which is always a big treat for us. It was a lovely day, lots of delicious food and every present I opened was something that I really liked. I picked up my new mountain bike on Christmas Eve and we immediately went to try it out on some trails in the forest. I found it exhilarating to sat the least, so yesterday we were out again, cycling down the country roads which was great as well, apart from being bitterly cold and our faces nearly being ripped off by the wind. I guess it's all part of the great outdoors and an effective way to clear any cobwebs on the mind!
Still don't know what we're going to do to see in the New Year, as usual we've left everything till the last minute. Hopefully we'll find something!
In the early hours of the morning, everything was covered in a thick frost and the temperature had plunged, it was quite icy and the countryside looked like it had been covered in glass! I forgot to mention that whilst in the forest the other day, we saw two proper country foxes, they were much larger than their urban counterparts, their fur was long and thick, and bright ginger. They ran across the path we were on and were soon well hidden in the camouflage of the trees. It's very true that each season has it's own magic.
