Three slow days above the clouds
14–16 Nov 2025
We came for the tea and stayed for the mornings: cold air, warm cups and hills that appeared one ridge at a time as the mist burned off.
The first clear view after two hours of fog. 
Every row clipped to the same height, by hand. 
Granite peaks keeping watch over the estate. 
The road we walked twice because we didn't want to leave.
