Abney Hall revisted

Posted on December 29, 2008

Yes­ter­day we went off to Abney Hall again.

I just love this place and could have spent hours and hours there– the cold finally drove me us inside.

Abney Hall runs along the M60 for a lit­tle while and it’s under a Man­ches­ter Air­port flight path so it can get pretty loud for the first 5 min­utes of the walk.

Soon you turn a cor­ner and you can’t hear the motor­way at.all.  it’s pretty amaz­ing to me as it is really loud and you can hardly hear any­one speak­ing it so bad.  The first time we went to Abney Hall I thought what a beau­ti­ful walk, shame about the noise!  Then you turn the cor­ner and see this

and as if by magic the motor­way noise fades.  It’s pretty mag­i­cal.  We then just pick up stones.  Look over fences and basi­cally just have a fab­u­lous time.

I love love love this last photo.  I don’t know if pho­to­graph­i­cally it’s all wrong.  I do know that it cap­tures the light and the mood of the day per­fectly.  Pop on over to Linda DeMelo Pho­tog­ra­phy to check out some really fan­tas­tic pho­tos of Squidge.  I’ll be post­ing pho­tos of Christ­mas morn­ing soon.  Thank­fully this year I wasn’t sick and man­aged to cap­ture the chaos on film digital.





Giddy up!
