A Fine Day in Cullen(47)

Hi, Welcome back. Happy to see you.

One day a few weeks ago, we had one of those very rare days here in March: it was sunny and pretty warm and NO wind. So, we decided to take a walk along the sea wall, past the pet cemetery and see how far we could go.

We started out at the sea wall and the sea was calm and peaceful. No wild waves and no water to spray us as we walked past.

This time we went to the Pet Cemetery and beyond, for the first time. The road past the cemetery is rutted and a sea of mud. A volunteer group is working to put it in better condition, but right now you have to be careful where you walk. And other times it just wasn’t safe because of the high waves that tended to wash over the path.

Climbing the hill was interesting but not difficult. It also was muddy and a little slick. But on top the views are wonderful.

We didn’t know who Nelson was, but decided to check out his seat.

And just to prove we did it. Here we are at Nelson’s Seat.

You can see that we have our coats and scarves and gloves, but we are not bundled up like usual. In fact, it was kinda warm on the long climb. What a beautiful day.

It was a lovely hike of about 2 1/2 miles. See you next time.
