Great Blog, Yorkshire! Fantastic photos. I can see why you'd travel to see it! Especially like that allee of Japanese Maples in gorgeous red, and the purple fungi on the logs... the sun streaming through the golden foliage!
Beautiful...thanks, enjoyed it like I was there too!

i think you mentioned your husband joined in ~ is he in the photos??!! lol :o)

thank you all for your wonderful comments, I am so pleased you enjoyed looking at this blog. I just wanted to share the beauty with you all, Stickitoffee, my husband was cooking the bar b q. Lol once again, thank you.

you have a very well trained husband ~ can he do a course on how to be so well trained?? ~ or perhaps you could do one on how to train a husband?

I'd sign up for that one, Sticki...."how to train a husband"....lol

think mine is a lost cause ~ but im sure he would say the same about me!

Lovely Autumn shades. I like the pic. of the wizzard. Is it Gandalf! (Or is it Saruman?).

Lovely photos. You must have had a great time with your family. I hope you're all right now.

Thanks all for your nice comments, glad you enjoyed the photos, I am o.k. now thanks Hywel.

WOW WOW WOW i just loved ur blog gone i favs . the colour ......... omg wonderfull . love the red acers , love the grasses ..pampass etc. and all the art and spooooooky stuf brill ;0)))))

Wonderful Autumn colour pics, Yorkshire, and a great idea to have a halloween Trail (the witch is my favourite). I remember your "bluebell" blog as if it was just the other week. So glad you finally managed to return to Thorpe Perrow. :-))

Glad you liked it, Holly Cristina, David I was hoping you would see it as I did promise you 18 months ago I would go back in the Autumn, its such a dream of a place to visit, I knew you would remember the bluebell blog. you said you liked the witch, think my husband liked the barbq one best as he was supposed to have been cooking rats and eye balls, Hywel thank you.

These wonderful photos only confirm my belief that no where else can compete with the colours of an English countryside in autumn.
Will have to try and make a visit next year perhaps. I`ve only been to Yorkshire once that was to visit a little town called Richmond.

yes def have to viset that one too!!!

Stroller and Cristina, thank you for looking at my blog, glad you liked it, its such a wonderful place to visit, did either of you see my other blog I put on from our last visit during the spring of 2009. Stroller, hope they did'nt lock you up in the castle at Richmond.!! Lol

i only joined this year so noooo .... but will go and look 4 it but we are allways looking 4 places to viset . do they do the witchy thing every year!!!

Hi Cristina, I would imagine they would do the Halloween theme every year, they aslo do bird displays there which is very intresting, and they have a little farm which is good, lots of meerkats also, Llamma, Kangaroos, etc etc

Cooked rats and eyeballs???? Yukkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!! Lol!!!
The other attractions sound good, too, though! :-))

David, cooked rats and eyeballs in curry sauce would be o.k. what do you think.!!

Ahhh!!! The curry sauce would make "all the difference", methinks!! A nice, spicy, "Rat"atouille, perhaps? Love watching "Bollywood" movies, too. If watching online, they are real i "Bolls", too!!!! - :-)))

Loved your blog about your visit to Thorpe Perrow. The colours were outstanding.I am sure your husband had great fun with the children on the Halloween trail.

so glad you enjoyed it Johnjoe, David, what you have commented is brilliant, only you could have made that up.

Think I lost the plot, as I don't, now, understand any of it, lol!!!

hope you had not been on the pop !! when you wrote that David, Lol

Can't remember, lol!!

Yorkshire, the autumn colours are amazing, its the time of year I enjoy most, love the changing colours, nothing to beat acers for their colour.
Fab photos. Of course the added interst for kids is wonderful to get them out and about into countryside. There's a kid in all of us who enjoys this.

Rosie, we were lucky we visited the right time, its the most amazing place to visit, a must in spring and autumn, I am so glad you enjoyed this blog/photos, thanks for your comments and taking a look.

Been to Yorkshire a few times in the last 5 years but missed this place! And such fun for the children..amazing and beautifully thought out, bet they had the time of their lives!

But oh, the colours!! Was sorry to hear about you being unwell YS, but it turned out for the best..such a wonderful walk. Its on my list for next time I visit and it will be autumn!

My grannie's forebears came from around Richmond and Leyburn, tho I didnt know it last time I went there. Will be returning tho to explore more closely.

Tet did you see the spring blog I put on of the same place, think you would really enjoy going there, they do bird shows and there is a cafe for food and drinks, a little garden centre, you can spend all day there, we did !!!

Couldnt find a blog Yorkshire but tracked down a few pics on your photos...yes its lovely with the bluebells, but autumn has to be the time to visit...

I don't know were that blogs gone to. mind you it as last year in spring, maybe they just disappear after so long, I am sure if you went to visit this you would be delighted. glad you found some pics of the spring though.

Stunning photos! Felt that I was walking around with you all, this is really lovely, Yorkshire...it has been a real treat to see...\0/x
