I like equinoxes and solstices as they have real astronomical significance. Today was forecast as being the last of our Indian Summer, so we had a really nice walk around a loop in the River Severn starting at Fretherne, west of Frampton-on-Severn. Eight or nine miles, with lunch at what used to be The Old Passage pub at Arlingham. Rain clouds on the horizon presaged autumnal days to come.
