Rugged Dartmoor

Today Meredith & I went to Dartmoor to see the moors and to do some walking.  This is a bit I've been looking forward to for some time, and it was definitely worth the effort.  We did a rather long walk connecting from tor to tor (peak) in a giant loop, and took our time.  We had good weather, including some sunshine, but today felt like the most humid it's been so far.  By the end we felt absolutely damp (in the last hour the weather seems to have finally wholeheartedly committed to rain). 

It really is lovely here and Dartmoor has a wild kind of quality about it.  I'm especially struck by the shapes of the rocks.  Although wading through ferns, tiptoeing through gorse and strolling among the horses also have their charm!
