This afternoon, we drove Owain out to Coed Hills near St Hilary in the Vale of Glamorgan where he'd been invited to a humanist wedding celebration outdoors in the grounds of the Coed Hills Rural Artspace. It's a mile from the nearest bus stop, and buses are infrequent, so we offered to give him a lift and pick him up afterwards. We then went to Dyffryn Gardens, had a picnic lunch, then spent a few hours strolling around the gorunds, enjoying the different seasonal look of areas both cultivated and natural. There's always something fresh to catch the eye there, so we never tire of visiting.
We returned to Coed Hills at the appointed time, but the wedding banquet was running late, so it was nearly seven by the time we departed with Owain. Yet, it was a pleasure just to sit in the parked car in a field listening and looking out for birds in the hedgerow in front of us. As we made our way back along the A48 to Cardiff, the Harvest 'supermoon' was in clear view above the horizon. I'd have loved an opportunity to stop and take a picture, but there was no place where I could both see the eastern horizon and safely park the car. Never mind, it's the 'blood moon' eclipse tomorrow night, provided I have the stamina to stay up.
