School’s out for summer! Well, at least Connie’s is – so it was up to Stickle Pike this afternoon in glorious, sunny weather – a complete contrast to the weather when I was not so far away from here two days ago. Nice weather for a (unintentional) swim today, too!

If you are paddling, be careful not to fall in. Connie didn't heed that warning - sodden!

Angus is content to carry on swimming though.

Casper is content to soak as well - in the sun!
