Brilliant sunshine on a winter's day in Grasmere.

This day, 2023, and captioned 'Riding Westwards.' Today, just a visit + the expected carrot.

We actually have snow.

Made it out again - 3rd excursion since September's road/track hit. Both still on anything untoward alert, but building our confidence back.
