La Sal mountains outside Moab, UT. God’s country out here. Add it to your bucket list.

It took quite a bit of effort to get me on The Focus this morning, but so glad I did.

It's called Back Lane in Maiden Bradley and I often stop here for a few moments.
As a matter of interest I often cycle near Wilton and love the road that runs parallel with the A36 betwixt Warminster and Salisbury through the Wylye Valley.

Nice pics and a lovely area to cycle. Broadchalke is nice too. Not too far from Wilton and has the watercress beds and Toyah Wilcox's old house!

I know the area quite well and like to take The Monkey on the A30 between Wilton and Shaftesbury often stopping at The Fovant Badges.
I have also ridden The Focus through Teffont Magna, Chilmark and Hindon.
A friend of mine used to work as a shepherd at Alvediston, near Broad Chalke, back in the 70s.

That middle photograph is absolutely amazing.
Although I have very occasionally seen such a sky, I've always been disappointed with my attempts to capture it.

I don’t ride, but I suppose a walk counts? Whitlingham Great Broad in Norfolk, did a couple of circuits as part of my Movember Move.

Well, it ain't quite the Norfolk Broads, but I walked past this on my afternoon constitutional...
However, don't be deceived. This is the same pond from a different angle:
