A Walk from The Beef Tub to Moffat

John was staying in Moffat for a week so he could regularly visit his mum in the home in Moffat so he fixed up a walk from The Devil's Beef Tub to Moffat and the advantage of this was it was all downhill. We like downhill. There were 7 walkers plus Sandria who was shaking off the effects of a virus but joined us after for a meal and had prepared excellent Bacon Rolls and Coffee when we arrived. 
Although the walk was nearly all downhill we started with a short climb from the Edinburgh road
It was a bit gloomy and very cold

This beautiful Sheep was very interested in us going past its field
The route was the Annandale Way but it was a long time before we hit the river Annan
The last half mile of the walk into Moffat beside the river Annan. A most enjoyable walk in excellent company followed by a nice meal back in Moffat.
