My friend Kay, from my bulletin, is still in hospital and they are running test. I will post an update when I know something more. Thank you for your prayers.
The bridge in the photo is called a Clapper bridge, (Latin form clapus, claperius, "a pile of stones" ) they are one of the earliest known bridges and believed to date back to medieval times.
Beautiful Yorkshire Dales near Malham Cove.
The bridge has two central piers spanned by three large granite slabs Clappers). These slabs would have replaced stepping stones to help pack horses cross the river carrying all sorts of commodities (wool, lead, salt,coal) carried in bags on the horse's flanks destined for the regional towns and cities.
This wonderful Wednesday is a bit cooler than the past few days which almost broke records... already. Enjoy all you do, and any plans you make. *hugs*
We used to have a garden each year. Now our veggies are from farmers mkts, and prices are high. But what would we do w/o okra and fresh corn? Merry Monday, friend.
Having lotsa fun (pants on fire) setting up new PC after old one died Sunday. Win11 is different, but so far we're gettin' along. Have a great weekend! *hugs* -di
If I could only get in that position and get up again... not happening willingly.
I might be able to do a little dance but I am afraid it would be misinterpreted as a rain dance.
Now I know we need April showers but we had March showers first and the flower beds are full and the ground is saturated.
I just hope the plants and bulbs don't get root rot. After so many droughts in South Texas, we learned to always welcome the rain every time it comes along.
Always be careful what you ask for because after 3 days of rain, we experienced 30mph winds with 40mph or higher gusts. Today should be cool but sunny. Blessings & "hang on to your hat" Hugs!
