I love that chair. Lovely to see these shots as I was there last month! Did you find some bilberries?
This looks like a wonderful trek full of surprises. I've also enjoyed reading about your adventures with "land art"; you made some fine temporary art works during that stay.
i was utterly besotted by Mary Stewart's splendid novel 'Crystal Cave' and wandered Wales some 25 years back searching for various places she named...sought in vai on the flanks of Snowdon for Merlin's foot prints...
One of the many things I enjoy about blogging is "seeing" different parts of the world. Merlin and the dragons, castles, and such are only things of tales in my life. But here you are in the land of fairy tales, giving us a tour! I love this land art and seeing you sitting in that giant chair is a treat! You look marvelously happy!
I love the dress! standing like a testament to women everywhere that we are strong! the chair! my oh my - how many hundreds of pictures do you think there are of this chair with someone sitting in it?
Well Look at you! How wonderful and happy you look in this giant chair! You are walking in the shadows of Merlin? This is a place of powerful fairy tales...thank you for this delightful tour!!
Oh, I want that chair for my garden!!
As I mentioned in my last comment, I visited London and Edinburgh in June. We loved Scotland and would like to go again and Wales is at the top of my list. There is something primitive and magical there.
Oh, I want to travel too! What beautiful, meaningful landscape. I love Naomi Leaker's dress, which looks so natural there. Thanks for introducing us.
I posted my 7 random things about myself...when you have the time, drop by in your magical shoes!
wow, rosie, just wow... what a magical place...
five foot seven inches! on my laptop you look to be about one and a half inches, but full of joy.
lovely
I thought "HOBBIT" when I saw you in the chair - and your view! Great Post!
What a beautiful scenery. I love the chair.
what a wonderful story and such and endearing chair with you sitting so magnificently in it! Thanks for posting this wonderful story. Legends are so fascinating to read and hear about and then see remnants of!!
