| Dogmarsh Bridge to Fingle Bridge | 2015-03-28 | With Liz and Julian from Dogmarsh Bridge to Fingle Bridge.
Wedding at pub at Fingle Bridge meant no river side drinkies.
Wedding ring finger got bitten by something again - finger badly swollen but not anywhere near as painful as last time (but only just got the wedding ring off before the swelling was too great).

| Budleigh to Otterton hound walk | 2020-06-19 | Scooby's been complaining about "just going round the block" so we took him for a stroll from Budleigh Salterton to Otterton via East Budleigh (birthplace of Sir Walter Raleigh).
Didn't see any beavers in the Otter River but did see their teeth marks on trees.

| Dogmarsh Bridge Fingle Bridge | 2015-10-19 | Along the Teign Valley as the trees start to change colour for the autumn.
We've done this walk a few times before but it was unusual this time due to the "art in the woods" (see the photos) and Castle Drogo being completely covered in scaffolding and tarpaulins.
