Escape to the country

 Generally speaking I like to escape city life at the weekend and find some peace and space from the crowds. 






  





We headed out of town a couple of weekends back to explore some more of the countryside in these parts. It was a beautiful day, we got lost, we had fun, we picked blackberries and then a downpour soaked us and we were finally rescued by a kind lady driving by.
 We've lived in this part of England for just over a year and a half and there's still so much to discover, the area around the midlands still feels very new to us. This may have been the last of the warmer September days we were lucky enough to have... now we are we well into autumn and the green in these images will soon become orangey, yellowy.
Autumn is here. My favourite season.
