A wet husband
A highlight of my year . .
Absolutely gorgeous mist, river noise, negative ions and bird song . .
The turquoise river wasnt this day .
Glacial fed, this day it was an angry mass of suspended rock particles in a hurry to get to the sea
From a bridge
Swing bridge . .
From the swing bridge (imagine the noise!!)
It was raining . .
Stunning negative ions
Uprooted tree
Coming home the sun came out to go down . . colour in the day!!
