I saw Anglesey every clear day of my long years of schooling in the north of Wales. It represented a haven, a place to which to escape. A gate for over-climbing with or without a fence complements the symbol; and the photo and the memory makes me happy as children are happy sometimes for reasons of their own imaginative contriving!
….make me happy……Can I hear my teacher, now, Tish, on the proper conjugation of verbs? And would I not rather have escaped to Anglesey to climb a gate than conjugate anything?!

Stunning π
What an odd place for a gate. Am I correct in assuming there is no fence to accompany the gate?
The scene is beautiful though.
I think there might have been a bit of a fence, perhaps from the days when the lighthouse keeper still lived there.
Such a nice landscape. I love finding little gates π
They tend give rise to ‘secret garden’ discovery sensations π
It’s an inviting little gate. Makes me want to walk the path and find out what’s on the other side.

That’s just what I thought. It was too windy to venture down there on the day I took the photo.
A very beautiful photo and landscape, Tish! The b/w enhances the different textures perfectly. π
Many thanks for those kind words, Sarah.
You’re very welcome! Have a lovely weekend!
Oh I so adore that little gate. π Such a nice dramatic photo. π
Thank you, Cee.
I’m through that gate and gone, Tish! Hold on to my coat tails π π
Sorry, missed this earlier, Jo. Expect report of virtual expedition π π
Too busy running after the Striders, Tish! ππΊππΈπ¦π¨π
I just knew you’d be off somewhere else. Ha!
Beautiful!
Thank you, Kendall.
Welcome!
What an unexpected gift of a reminder, Tish!

So happy to conjure the place of happy escapes, Sarah. It is very special island.
What a faithful little gate. π
Nicely put π
