We need to check the tide times when walking the dog, as it’s easy to get caught on the wrong side of the causeway if we get it wrong.

This was the highest tide we’ve experienced since we moved to Aveton Gifford in South Devon.

The stream is usually a few inches deep, but it was over the bridge handrails this morning.

Country and Coast - Two Dog Walks in One Day

We moved to South Devon a month ago, renting a renovated barn while looking for our new permanent home. We live a few miles from the coast, in the middle of farming country, which means that in the morning, we explore the local woods and footpaths.

Here’s a photo of Topsham Bridge, taken around 8am yesterday.

Since moving, it’s compulsory to go to the coast at the weekend, and yesterday we went to the beach at Thurlestone just before sunset.
