Expedition

I wasn't sure if I would have the time to go there, and it was raining all the time in the morning, so I had almost given up. But the rain stopped in the early afternoon and I got ahead with work faster than expected. So I just took my bull, rode the nine kilometers to the hash and had a look. It was 70 m from the road and there was a thicket that I couldn't fight for even 10 meter. So I tried it from the other side. There was a football pitch and a lawn in front of the thicket. Behind the pitch was the fence of the pool.

I crossed the lawn and entered the thicket. I jumped over a small ditch and reached another - wider - ditch. I crossed this one to, with the help of a big piece of wood. But on the other side -still 30 m to go - I was stopped by the thicket, that was now mostly bramble. So I decided to turn back. Just when I walked back over the lawn, little lady called me and asked when I'd come back. So I didn't start another attempt and rode back home.
