The Hare and the Tortoise

Here we are at the lovely Indigenous Brewery
Where the wonderful Kevin is giving the boys a lesson in how to brew beer

I prefer to depart Chaddleworth and head over to Saddleback Farmshop
We have tea and scones then embark on our 5 mile walk on the Farnborough Down in glorious weather 

 We get lost, ask a farmer's wife the way, and get a lift from a workman back to the farm shop for a late lunch.  9K.  The best time of year.  Blossoms everywhere.  Hot 
Then back to Chaddleworth to collect the team and bond with Artemis.  On the way I followed a hare on the road for half a mile.  He couldn't get up the bank.  So graceful.  This is hare country.

 

Taking the boys to the brewery on a lovely Bank Holiday Monday

 I go off for a walk

 And return to witness Magg's Mild winning yet another award

Walk from Greenham Common to Bowdown Woods

Read about the woods here and the house here 
In WW2 the Wing Headquarters were located in the requisitioned Bowdown House, a mansion on the northeast end of the airfield which is now our lovely common.  

I visit the woods after a stint at the control tower on a lovely bank holiday weekend evening.
