Flora in Dorothy Wordsworth's Grasmere Journal

28 July 2017 (Friday)
We worked at the Jerwood Center most of the day. In the afternoon I met with Sally Hall, the gardener. We sat for a long time in the potting shed in the back garden at Dove Cottage, talking about flowers and other things with a couple from Lancashire. Then we walked around to the orchard and the back garden and talked about the flowers there. I am so privileged to have been able to meet Sally and spend a few hours with here. We walked back to the hostel, enjoyed some delicious chili prepared by Naomi King, had evening prayers, and retired. I have slept so well at the hostel, looking through my little window out across the slate roof on to the fells and the little spots of sheep and fading light.
