ChickPea rediscovered the canal towpath yesterday. Was a Local Holiday day. TH needed a breath of fresh air, Mr Mutt needed his constitutional, the car needed to be collected from overnight parking near the hostelry they visited the night before. This combination of factors has previously resulted in Parkland Perambulation or Riverside Ramblings. But yesterday it was the turn of the canal.
The sun was shining…….Mr and Mrs Morehen and family of four were paddling out and about……. the dragonflies were practicing aerobatics…….. the ‘Wild Meadow’ plants alongside the sparkling water were resplendent in purple, white, blue, red, yellow…… the footpath had been restored since ChickPea last visited (about 15 years ago).....

.......TH was clicking here and there, camera in hand...........Mr Mutt's eyes were shining.......... and gee it was warm…......
Was Glorious. Was Time Out. Life Is Good.

Sounds lovely. And sounds like you needed it.
What a wonderful day you have had.
I have a touch of envy as I had spent the day at work (on the sunny Costa Clyde).
