An absolutely amazing (though thoroughly exhausting) day! We hiked 16 miles, almost 7.5 hours from Sparsholt Firs to Ogbourne St George along The Ridge Way (or Ridgeway Trail), a pre-historic path through southern England. It passes by beautiful open country and farmland, rolling hills, and a few Iron and Stone Age monuments. We had the trail almost entirely to ourselves except around the monuments and a cyclist here and there… our feet, legs and shoulders are achy and tired, but what an experience! And there’s more tomorrow, stay tuned…

Wow! The White Horse of Uffington! I think I’d rather be with you – instead of cleaning the kitchen!! And it doesn’t seem to be as hot where you are! xoxo
I like the Tolkien reference – very appropriate. You and Josh could be hobbits in the photo of the two of you. Except we know you are both way taller and missing the whole hobbit foot thing….
