Another wonder around the garden today so see what else is springing into life. This is our one and only tree which is now covered in small buds.

Apologies for the sun flare mid shot, but I still like the photo. Just shows what a sunny day it is here today.

In between all the rain and wind and dropping the kids off for the weekend, we managed to pop into York. I love York, and feel very lucky to live so close to it. My photo of the day then is of one of the three bridges in the centre that span the River Ouse. This is the Skeldergate Bridge, built in 1878 -1880 and until 1914 was a toll bridge.

If you ever visit York and park on St Georges car park you can walk under part of this wonderful bridge to get into town, rather than take your life in your hands getting across the very busy road.

Below are some of the tree's that line the bank of the Ouse just by the bridge. You'll notice the lack of grass, all down to the numerous times the river breaks it's banks over the winter (and has to be said the summer!)

Taken from the car as we were driving back over the A66, which just five days earlier was closed due to the snow.

As some of you will know, the next few 365 pictures are all courtesy of our short break to Winfell Center Parcs. This first photo is from one of the conifer saplings outside our villa.
