Summertime

Some pictures I took around the neighborhood.




I took these on the day of the Germany - England world cup game to show all the England support. It's a good thing too, because these flags came down so fast after that horrible showing by England.

Hello oddly proportioned Robin Hood, Prince of thieves!



Ingleton Falls

Our new tradition (as we did it last year and this year), Ingleton falls on the May long weekend (after I finish work as I worked again this year)


The Coin Tree




A little troll lives in there



Amazingly, there's not been as much rain this year and the falls were definitely less impressive.
