Sepia Saturday 172 : 13 April 2013

It is time to get out your knapsack, pull on your long woolly socks, dig out your sensible shoes, staple a smile to your face, and head for the open road. This week on Sepia Saturday we are off hiking and whether you know where you are going or, like those in this archive photo entitled "Palmer's Mystery Hike No. 2", the destination is not as important as the journey, there is fun to be had. As for those who are in search of a theme, there are walkers, roads, hats, short trousers, and the alarming phenomenon of a woman with three legs. In the great traditions of Sepia Saturday, it doesn't matter what theme you follow, it is the day out which is the enjoyable thing. So plan your days out on or around Saturday 13th April 2013 and add a link to the list below.

For all those people who like to plan ahead, here is a note of the next two Sepia Saturday theme images:

173 : Now this particular photograph is just plain odd. What on earth is going on here I can't begin to imagine. But we all have odd old photographs in our collections and here is your chance to feature them.

174 : There are a number of easy theme possibilities here - newspapers, people sitting down - but those Sepians who like a challenge might like to get behind the headlines.

Well, there we are. My call post is up extra early this week as I am about to head off to Spain for a few days. I am sure that whilst I am there I will be thinking of you all in your walking boots, enjoying the robust Spring (Autumn for those antipodean Sepians) weather as you scale some craggy peak. I, meanwhile, will be sat in some bar soaking up the sun and alcohol in equal measures. Salud!
