46. Was it at Bert's Cafe?
Sun Jun 13, 2021, 03:09 PM
Jun 2021

Seriously, I wanted to stop for lunch at the place that was the location for Bert's restaurant. Oh, well - the Worthy Toll Road is a neat drive:



The last part, just as we were getting to the open fields, we were just inundated with pheasants (or maybe grouse). We ended up crawling along since they would fly out of the hedges as we came up to them and we didn't want to hit them.

You can see the main road, A39, that we were supposed to take, but we missed the turn. By the time we realized it, we were almost at the toll road gate so we decided to take it. It was well worth it.
