A Taste of Things to Come

I posted this photograph last year for Sunday Purple. It was a bit of a teaser of what you might be seeing in my posts over the following months.

I'd rejoined the National Trust when I was taken out for a Mother's Day Treat.

The trust is a conservation organisation that looks after and protects houses, buildings and gardens along the coast and in the countryside of England and Wales. We'd been members in the past but found we weren't using the membership so we let it lapse.

Last year we made good use of it and visited many properties. In fact we visited the local ones on numerous occasions.

It was great fun exploring them with the grandchildren so we've decided to renew our membership again for this year.

However, I doubt we'll make such good use of it this time since most of the photography competitions I used to enter here have now ended. Taking the pictures was a great incentive to get out and about.

Also, our eldest grandson will cease to be free for the last few months so we need to make sure we get use out of the membership before then. 😁

This map shows where all the Trust's properties are located and we're hoping to tick off a few more before this next year is up. 😁
