River of Life ...

Deep in the Enchanted wood, in the wilds of mid Wales, amongst the still quiet and skeletal trees, a river bubbled its way through the silence …....

    Rest assured you can be glad Richie. Just makes me nostalgic (which I enjoy) and again remember just how beautiful Wales is.

  • richiedean replied

    That’s a relief angie, I dont know which part of Wales you are from, but I have covered most of it ….. I hope that i am now a native and an adoptee ….. I came here 29 years ago …. living in Mid Wales gives me the ultimate starting point to venture out, it’s only minutes before I’m out in the wilds …... :))
