The Church and Cemetery in Dron

We are housesitting in the Manse and, of course, immediately next door is the church and cemetery. the weather finally got to be good enough that we no longer had an excuse to put off a visit.

Dron Treescape Again

A short walk from where we are staying is this tree at the edge of a very soggy field. As you can see in the distance, the sky is getting darker. About 5 minutes after this image was taken, I was forced to retreat when the rain started in earnest.

This is the state of things here: one minute it is fine weather, the next it is raining or snowing or both.

I like these UK trees silhouetted against the sky.

Along the Road to Dron

We are staying in a house in the small settlement of Dron. On the way to our current slice of paradise, we pass between these two trees every day. Today, we had a bit of sun so I jumped out of the car for a quick photo.

While you can tell that the ground is wet and there is some water alongside the road, what you cannot tell is that the non-paved parts are really soggy. All the rain in these parts is really being felt.

Also note the width of the road compared to the size of the car you see in the distance.
