The sun was shining as we set off today,but it was overcast by the time we returned. However after heavy rain overnight at least it stayed dry. during our walk we came across the drag hunt as they laid a trail for the hounds to follow. We could hear the hounds in the distance but we did not see them. We came across a number of Hunts peole as they rode to meet the hounds andwe saw several deer spooked by the noise. The ponies were also running to move out of the way.
