Expedition

The ground was damp after earlier rain but the sky had cleared. There was bright starlight and the temperature was dropping fast. A public footpath led across the middle of a field but it had been ploughed up. The perimeter path was a better option. There was a way into the wood, possibly made by deer. Daffodils were in bud under the trees so a bit of care was needed to avoid these. It was easy enough to zero the distance on my Garmin GPSr. My Android phone lost GPS lock and said I was 1.5km away! The picture uploaded worked OK in spite of the trees.
