<\/a>\nOn some of the more exposed lanes on higher ground it was a challenge to remain standing let alone progress along the road. It was tiring and at one point I ducked down into a deep ditch just to get out of the wind.
\nInspite of all of this lambs continued to bleat from the fields and wildflowers bloomed continuously in the hedges.<\/p>\n
The day after prayer<\/b> JAL 15.04.2019 Day 14 of the walk means I have been going for two weeks. Unbelievable! I have now walked 138 miles. As we moved on from Doublebois to near Holsworthy in Devon, there was a very strong wind to weather. On some of the more exposed lanes on higher ground it was a challenge to remain … Continue reading “Blowing in the Wind”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-137","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/foowr.org.uk\/lejogblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/foowr.org.uk\/lejogblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/foowr.org.uk\/lejogblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foowr.org.uk\/lejogblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foowr.org.uk\/lejogblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=137"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/foowr.org.uk\/lejogblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":138,"href":"https:\/\/foowr.org.uk\/lejogblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137\/revisions\/138"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/foowr.org.uk\/lejogblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=137"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foowr.org.uk\/lejogblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=137"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foowr.org.uk\/lejogblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=137"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/a>
\nI got lost briefly and then found myself again and eventually the welcome sight of Bob coming towards me with a bun urged me onto the Tarka Trail, a more sheltered route to Great Torrington.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nThere was a slightly hair raising final mile from the trail to Taddiport church. What I call the map, app, track dilemma. Which should be believed? The track was deeply rutted and there was a tight squeeze round a metal barrier at one point with the threat of the track ending before the road junction. It didn’t and I made it to the junction and met Bob for the end of the days walk.
\nOur new camping site is lovely with a huge safari tent as our accommodation. The high wind makes it a bit flapy. Here’s hoping the wind drops.<\/p>\n

\nThe broken palm branches on the road,
\nGround into the dusty track
\nAre evidence that he passed this way.
\nThe day after we might wonder
\nWhere to now?
\nThe wind blows where it will.
\nMay we be willing to go with him
\nOn the next stage of the journey. <\/i><\/p>\n
