After a gap of a week in which there has been a lot of rain, we took up the End to End again today. It was Day 63 and we were once again in Cumbria in the M6 corridor.
\nI started at the Cottage Wood Centre, a project of the Methodist Church where I spoke to one of the project workers. She told me the congregation had been down to 4 people before the project started and it’s now a thriving space for people of all ages.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThe road went straight on and as a result the traffic goes rather fast much to the detriment of 3 hedgehogs. A notice suggested red squirrels deserved consideration. Unfortunately I didn’t see any. But I did see some donkeys and sheep, and All Saints Church, Calthwaite.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nBy lunchtime we’d made it to Southwaite services and so walked in through the back gate. It’s beginning to look a bit worn but the jam donuts were as good as ever.
\nThe grass verges were a riot of foxgloves, buttercups, vetch and red campion alongside many different grasses. The season was certainly marching on.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A tiny few spots of rain after lunch but hardly worth putting my hood up for. The road carried straight on and I was soon striding into Burthwaite where the post box looked very familiar. Red of course, but also the same one Hannah had been photographed at in 2012.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

From Proverbs 3
\n
\nGod will make your paths straight.<\/i><\/p>\n

May we walk in God’s paths.
\nAnd may God grant us a quiet night and a peaceful end. <\/b><\/p>\n
