Tuesday 22nd July
We had a very pleasant afternoon out at Scampston Hall and walled garden near Malton.



Thursday 17th July
This evening we went to Harlow Carr for an RHS members only jazz evening. It was very pleasant sitting in the sunshine and listening to the music.



Monday 14th July
We visited Newby Hall quite late in the day and didn't really explore it fully. We joined the Historic Houses Association here so we can return at any time.



Tuesday 8th July
Byland Abbey is a place that we had not visited before and we were impressed by how extensive and complete it is.



Thursday 3rd July
This is the one of the Chelsea Gardens and below it is the Alhambra Garden both in Roundhay Park. It is one of our favourite places to visit when the weather is good.



Wednesday 18th June
Today we enjoyed the hot weather and the gardens at Harlow Carr.



Saturday 3rd May
Today we met up with Anna & Brian, some friends from Australia who we had not seen for 24 years when Anna did a teacher exchange.
We all enjoyed a sunny afternoon at Temple Newsam.

Anna was keen to see bluebells in the woods and they were out in abundance here.

The greenhouses were full of colour and the scents were lovely.
