Cowgill to Sedbergh 12.5 miles
Looking back at Sportsman's Inn beside the River Dee, as we started out in the morning.
This little guy was curious
Gates, stiles and steps everywhere.
This fellow didn't pay one bit of attention to me while I took his picture. He was no doubt thinking, "If I ignore her, she'll go away..."
His friends watched from the gate.
I did a detour around these big fellows. (Ladies?)
What are these things? Rats? Gophers? No, I think they're moles. Intended to scare other moles away??
I love the Brit's neat little gardens.
Intermittent clouds, but no rain!
Taking a rest at St. Andrews in Dent
Churchyards are a good place to take a little nap. As I was looking at this picture, I remembered a similar one taken 5 years ago when we were doing Hadrian's Wall hike. Same shirt, and backpack. Sans apple!
Sedbergh, our destination for the day, seen in the distance
Walking into Sedbergh
This was our B. & B. It was a beautiful 150 year old home that was just lovely. A short walk from downtown Sedbergh, our room was comfortable and the owners friendly and welcoming. Daleslea Bed & Breakfast
We walked down Main Street to the Red Lion Pub for dinner and Russ once again had Steak and Ale Pie for the 4th night in a row! He does like the pub version of our beef pot-pies. Very hearty! The food was good and it was a pleasant place to eat.
Afterward, we explored the quaint little town. Their yearly Sheep Fest was in full swing so there were probably more tourists than usual. Nearly every shop window had a sheep display of some kind or another. They were all numbered and had been judged and awards giving. Some were really funny.
