A few people have commented on the photo of the thatched cottages at the top of my Blog page. This photo was actually taken at Hope Cove, which is a lovely little coastal village here in Devon, about twenty minutes from where I live.
It is actually one of my very favourite coastal walks, and Hope Cove is where we end up for lunch at the village pub, which is very olde worlde! Here is a view from the pub, looking across at Thurlestone, which is where we park the car to set off on the walk.
As I was looking through my photos, I was thinking how good it was to be reminded of lovely warm weather, with it still being so bitterly cold at the moment. Here is a photo of my three grandchildren during an absolutely perfect day at the beach this summer.

Oh to feel the sun again! Lovely pics - Hope Cove looks gorgeous..
We all have beauty around us and you sure captured some in your photos. Great post today girl.
Thanks Odie. I love it when you say 'girl'! Makes me feel young again - LOL!!
Oh my!!! How absolutely beautiful!!! ONE DAY... I am going to make my way across the big "pond" and visit your beautiful country!! Thank you for sharing these!
Glad you liked the photoes Becky. It is very special in this part of the world! (But then, I would say that, wouldn't it?! LOL).
photos are gorgeous as always.....thank you for sharing....
These are breathtaking scenes, Thisisme! I could gaze for hours at those majestic rocks jutting up from the water. I only hope that tourists don't spoil the area's natural beauty over time. Have a splendid day!
This...I agree about Odie calling us 'girl'. It does make one feel a little perkier!! These pics are fantastic. I just love the old world look of the thatched roofs. If there is any way you could take pics of the inside of that pub I'd die to see it. Love that old world look. Someday This...I'm gonna come knockin'.
How gorgeous! I really wanna visit there. I would LOVE to spend days taking pictures.
Thanks for the reminder of summer sunshine. Although sunny and clear blue skies here today the temperature plummeted to 4C this afternoon.
Hi Barb. Won't be until the new year now, but I will certainly take my camera with me next time I go on my walk, and take a photo of the inside of that pub!
LindyLou = 4 degrees is pretty cold, isn't it? Do you usually get really cold winters?? I wouldn't have thought so, but what do I know?!
Shady, we do rather curse the tourists when they're here, and are always glad to get the area back to ourselves. Which is very selfish of course, and this part of the UK relies very heavily on the tourism industry. It's usually not too bad, apart from the 6 week summer school holidays.
So nice to meet you and thank you for stopping in to visit me. I LOVE THAT PIC OF YOUR GRAND KIDS TOO!! Looks like something I would like to paint!
Those thatched cottages are my FAVORITE! I have such photos and paintings hung in my home. My mother, oldest daughter and I share a love of cottages, England and Ireland.
I saw your button, wishing to go to Venice. My husband is Italian and we have a dream of one day going there to look up his relatives. I have had a romance with anything Italian most of my life.
You are one blessed woman indeed! I was salvating over your beautiful photos of your quaint little town. I would enjoy following you too, I think we have lots in common. I also have another blog, Discovering the Purpose of our Lives. There is a link on Mystical Journeys.
I look forward to more visits!!
