Here's a co-incidence for you. Lisa and I picknicked at Beanacre yesterday, choosing the outdoors in the sunshine rather than sitting inside somewhere. The spring flowers are coming out, the grass is growing, and the fresh air clears the lungs wonderfully!
Where's the co-incidence?
I've just uploaded half a dozen pictures to our "Beanacre Page"... and noticed that my previous photographic visit to Beanacre was on exactly the same date last year!
Perhaps not so much of a co-incidence - spring usually comes around now!
See
[here] for this year's pictures, and last's too!
