    I love that Britain has these wild-looking places that are still within walking distance of tea. (Although I did see the Highlands episode of that Man vs. Nature or whatever show where he has to skin a rotting deer just to survive the night.)

    Also: Why are there no trees on those hills? Surely there’s enough rain.

    Ahhhh… I remember rain! (A distant memory of childhood in Seattle… I’m entirely certain it’s never gonna rain here in LA ever again…) Lovely photos, Stella.

    Excellent question, Dave. There are no trees because sheep having been grazing for hundreds of years on this land. They eat baby trees.
