Vixen Tor. Inaccessible due to private ownership of land surrounding it. Pfff! Had a gorgeous walk to and a wee climb up it. Also investigated a churchyard in Sampford Spiney to find a gravestone for an old boy I’d met in a charity shop in London whose wife’s parents were buried there. He hopes to take her ashes there. It was great to find the gravestone and send him photographs.*****
In the morning attending a 4th Dan graduation; amazingly precise and effortless Aikido in beautiful awase (blending with the energy) of the opponent.
The result of several decades of training Aikido.
No pictures allowed during the graduation.
In the evening attending my oldest friend’s birthday party, new people were there, so great achievement to make new friends also when past the forties.
And this is Haliey, happy to join the party, despite the (perpetual) sad face.
