Walking on the Hills

The weather has not being kind to us. We have had some very wet days and the tracks are all awash so we took the car up to the forestry walks. The water was running down the road here as well, like a river, this morning. However we did manage 7kms across a forestry path and then on the road, with a coffee break at the halfway point. (This was before retracing our steps to the car) There was still water running down the hill all the way back down to the town and we were glad the route we had chosen was reasonably dry. The other road routes may have been as wet as the one in the photos and the roads and tracks have been eroded by the water in some places.

The water ran across the road and on downhill, cutting away the soil at the edge

The gate was steaming in the sun and there are two spiders' webs hanging on it
