July weekend visits
We managed two visits to The Pines in July. Both weekends involved more sanding (yes I know!) but some lovely exploring too! I was let off the sanding the first weekend as I had just had an injection in my shoulder so had to rest it! I left Olly to it and went for a walk from the house to the beach. This was another carved throne I found on a little playing field near the beach. The day was a bit drizzly, but later we went for a little wander around Porthmadog, we needed to buy more sand paper! The next day was a lot brighter, after a lovely lunch at another of our favourite cafes, Llew Glass we walked up the lanes behind Harlech and was rewarded by some fantastic views... A few weeks later we were back there... Harlech Castle We had a trip to Criccieth. another good spot for lunch... We found a new view point too! then back to The Pines for, you guessed it... More sanding! That evening we listened to a murder mystery on Radio 4 and ate homemade roasted vegetables with gnocchi. And
