Postcard from Penrhyndeudreath

 Last Thursday, the 23rd, I set off for Gwynedd, North Wales to stay with my mum for a few days.  Typically it rained!  But not all the time and I managed a lovely walk along some of the Glaslyn Valley, behind Penrhydeudreath's hill, Clogwn.

I have walked here since child hood visits with my Nain (North Welsh for Grandmother).  It is a beautiful peaceful place, often empty of walkers even in summer.

                                                                                                      I will see the sheep dog, grazing cows and sheep as I walk along "Never Never Land" as my aunt called it as a young girl.

It has a timeless quality this rich grazing land.  I walked along the rough road by rocky oak covered outcrops, then across the field and up along and over Clogwyn, coming back to the village in warm sunshine.
