Goyt Valley with Pa







Today I left control of the route to Dad. The weather forecast all week said today would be heavy rain and cold. In Buxton this generally means its even worse than you think it will be but no! Today was a beautiful fresh sunny autumn day. Surely this meant that as soon as we set off the cloud would cover the sun and the heavens open? but no, the sun remained throughout and even though the wind was bitter at shining tor once we sat down for lunch we were out of it.



This was a 10 mile walk starting in the valley and heading up to the tor along moorland and then walking past the Cat and Fiddle pub before following the path in a full circle back to Fernilee Resevior. As always recruiting the family makes these walks even more enjoyable. However my hip is now complaining after all this weeks exercise!!! It will just have to cope.
