THe English countryside can be glorious. Not quite the same as Scotland but equally dramatic in other ways.

Andy,

That is lovely writing, and it sounds like a truly glorious walk and a wonderful day. It certainly makes me long for a walk in the English countryside! And Houseman’s poem does seem to help put the rest of the world and its situations in a bit of needed perspective.

Paul,

I parked a car at Little Stretton, went up Ashes Hollow to the top of the Mynd, strolled around awhile before making my way down the other side and eventually to Bridges. I climbed back up and then strolled around aimlessly for a but before descending to Minton. The pub was the Ragleth Arms in Little Stretton â€” highly recommended.

I could have been anywhere in South Shropshire though!

Andy,

Was that the Church Stretton area or further south? Sounds idyllic…

Andy,

What a truly inspiring post! Thanks so much for writing it.

The Houseman poem has brought a big lump to my throat.
