The One Week Winter Wonderland

The pond, frozen over.

Capernwray Hall. See the two windows on the second floor to the right of the door? That's where my new room is.

One of the ornamental lawns, covered in snow

Remains of an old tower in one of the fields

Slightly crazy-eyed horse

A sheep that is much, much cuter than Damien (aka Pig Sheep)

Sunset in the field

Good Feeling

I finished my last assignment for winter school today! It was a paper on a book we were required to read called "If You Want to Walk on Water, You Have to Get Out of the Boat". It was a decent book.

11 pages, 7000 words...

It feels good to be done!

Hm...

Train from Carnforth to Lancaster: 3 GBP
A McDonald's Happy Meal anywhere in the UK: 3.75 GBP
A typical load of laundry at Capernwray Hall: 2.50 GBP
Saturday trip to Liverpool: 17 GBP
Finding out that jacket potatoes aren't on the menu this week: priceless.
