Different Type of Grass

Today I had to go up to my Brother-in-Laws farm in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, to exchange some Christmas presents that Anne had got mixed up. Robert has grass to look after but not quite the same kind of rye-grass that we are familiar with.

This is the view across his home meadow.
A few of his Texel sheep in the next meadow -all the fields have names, I can never remember them though- this view is looking down the dale -Upper Wharfedale.

Looking down dale from side of the house fancy waking up to this every day?
I can be a bit bleak the farm is the top one, of this little off shoot from the dale.

The hill you can see is the well known land mark which is "Simon's Seat" slightly lower down is
"The Valley of  Desolation" and on the other side "Trollers Gill".
Look them up it is a beautiful part of the world.
The next photo may give you a better idea as to where on the map you will find these landmarks.


It may be difficult to see in this photo but the lighter coloured area is a cricket square. Any ideas?

 You may need to enlarge. Did you get it?
I just want to end on a positive, after tomorrow I do believe that the days start getting longer.
How good is that?
