Tremendous Tatton

Last Saturday I went to the RHS Tatton Park Flower Show. There is always a lot to see and a wonderful selection of plants that you can buy. 

There is a Produce tent that has fascinating display of fruit and veg.
What imagination! 

Mr and Mrs Cornucopia walked around the showground.
How many flowers in each outfit?

The school children are given a story and a character and have to design and make a display.
Fantastic Mr Fox certainly was fantastic.
Where's Bunce and Bean?
Old Toad was hopping about.

Cacti are popular this year and these are in oil drums.

We had a lovely walk around Dufton pike one of our local 'pyramids.'
Part of the walk is on the Pennine Way
We suddenly came across this tree.

Can you see the face in this tree?
It looks like a dolphin
