Too nice an evening to miss the chance to get a short walk in so I headed off west to visit the Howgills, the range of fells between the Pennines and the Lake District Fells. Wainwright even wrote a book on walks in these quiet hills so I took the chance to follow one of his shorter routes from that book. Very enjoyable it was too, easy walking but with some interesting geology, wildlife and views. The walks in the Howgills and in AW's other books such as Limestone Country and the Outlying Fells of the Lake District will all be covered by members of the Wainwright Society as part of this years "challenge". Why not check it out, a good chance to explore different areas and raise money for a good cause at the same time?
Yes, I mean "Ewe"!

This Blog is really an extra to my main website at The Teesdale Gallery. I'm hoping that it will give some interesting extra infomation about me (Andy Beck) and my life as artist and gallery owner.
Whether you have been a customer to the gallery, a visitor to the Wainwrights in Colour Exhibition or maybe you have met me "out and about", my intention is to make this blog an extra dimension to my work.
