Today, Mark and Barbara took a drive in the morning. We started by going to Troutbeck, up some pretty narrow, twisting roads.

| Troutbeck - gorgeous |
It was beautiful with lots of sheep and cows and amazing complexes of stone walls. Jecca stayed home to write.
After Troutbeck, we went to Bowness, parked and took a walk along the lake in the drizzle. It never rained enough to make us run for the car.
We had lunch at home and then took Jecca to a spot outside of Grasmere where we left her to take a hike up to higher elevation to a tarn. We went home and did a last laundry.
When she was done with the hike, we picked her up and went to Matthew's Bar and Bistro in Ambleside for a delicious dinner - we all, very unusually, ordered the same meal - a falling-off-the-bone lamb shank with mashed potatoes and gravy with a side of veggies - marinated cabbage, broccoli, carrots and cauliflower. It was very good. Then, we shared a rhubarb Eton mess.
We will be sad to leave here as it's been a good stay in a very nice cottage.
