More Moors

When I was a child, I read stories about the English moors and the wild ponies found on them.  I didn't actually believe they existed until I went to the UK in 1979 and saw them first hand.  Since then, I've loved visiting the moors, whether they be here in the southwest or in the north (Derbyshire and Yorkshire), where they aren't ponies but lots of sheep.  I've already posted pics of the ponies, the sheep and the scenery of Dartmoor but, today (Tuesday) we drove along the north coast of Devon in Exmoor.  The heather was in full bloom, it was sunny and the scenery was breathtaking.
