On the cusp of spring, Brasside Pond, such a gorgeous spot that's all but hidden behind HMP Frankland near Durham in North East England. A Site of Special Scientific Interest, it's the largest expanse of unpolluted open water (apart from reservoirs) in County Durham and is regarded as the most important breeding site for wildfowl in the county.

Hell yeah! New release from Fust, a #Durham, NC based alt-country band dropped yesterday. The album is "Big Ugly." Check out the first single "Spangled." I love the use of pedal steel in this record.

Great views looking south from Ryhope Dene, the northern boundary of Co Durham in North East England. This is the Durham Heritage Coast, with Seaham Harbour in the near distance, after which, continuing 14km down to Hartlepool Headland. Beyond that, Tees Bay and where the land rises up onto the North York Moors.

Love this 'olde world' buckled window in Saddler Street, Durham in North East England. This is the throughfare coming down from the cathedral, leading on to Durham Market Place and which retains many elements of its medieval origins. Walked up and down it many times and when researching my family history, discovered a link to a 19th century confectionary business which occupied part of the present-day Waterstones University Bookshop.

Lovely afternoon for a history hike on the #EnoRiver! In addition to our friendly and knowledgeable #EnoRiverAssociation guide, we were fortunate to have two local genealogy enthusiasts who had each traced their personal ancestry in the area back to the pre-Revolutionary War era. And of course it turned out that they were distantly related...
A wealth of local lore on a glorious sunny day - what better way to spend a Sunday afternoon?
Ray Lonsdale's 'The Coxwain', a sculpture at Seaham Harbour, Co Durham. It commemorates the courage and dedication of past and present members of the town's lifeboat station, in particular, those who lost their lives aboard the 'George Elmy' lifeboat in 1962. The Seaham Lifeboat Disaster, as it is referred to, is an event I clearly remember from my youth.

Na mapce zaznaczyłem dawne (aktualnie porzucone, lub zamienione na ścieżki) torowiska kolejowe, którymi udało mi się połazić w zeszłym roku.
Przecudowna rozrywka dla takich łazików jak ja.
Teraz planuję kolejne trasy. Siedzę z mapami (online) z początków XX wieku i współczesnym widokiem sat. żeby sprawdzić co jeszcze pozostało. Większa część została zamieniona na drogi, sporo też zwyczajnie zaorano i tylko kontury na mapach lotniczych, albo rzędy drzew na linii torów pokazuja, że coś tu było.
Aaaaaaaaand there it is. #Durham public schools doing a remote learning day tomorrow.
A couple and their dog walking the East Durham countryside near Easington in North East England.
Not only enjoying the increasing daylength, but I love how the quality of the light changes during February as the sun's altitude increases.
