Spring in almost here.The daffodils are flowering and as you drive along the country lanes there are fields of new born lambs.

Last weekend I walked along the river Eden from Lazonby to Lacy's Caves.There are five chambers carved out in the red sandstone by hand in the 18th century The caves were used by Lieutenant - Colonel Samuel Lacy for entertaining guests.

Just past Eden bridge there were some Canada geese grazing.
