Woke to another beautiful blue sky although it wasn’t very
warm first thing. We need to think about
heading south soon - those birds know
something.
After breakfast we decided we needed some exercise so go for
a nice little walk along one of the many tracks threading through the Burnidge
Forest Preserve. However, we took a
wrong turning fairly early on and ended up walking the South Trail Loop, the longest
purple track - all 2.24 miles of it!
Nice easy walk though, flat with a shelly pea metal sort of surface. The only wildlife we saw was a frog, jumping
across the path in front of us, but we saw plenty of signs of deer and raccoons
too.
Talked to George late afternoon, Monaco sent the wrong
bushes! No surprises there! However George then had a root around in his
attic and found two of the exact ones we need so we are good for tomorrow
morning at 8am. We have booked a rental
car for the day as there is nothing around George’s place to entertain us for an
hour or two, or a few hours, if it doesn’t go smoothly. We need to get some groceries too otherwise we
will be back to drinking black tea!
