Just down the road from
Natland is the village of Endmoor and their millennium clock and a little bit of
nature surrounding it. What time is it, well look at the
numbers. Maybe after a good lunch it will be time to have
a cat
nap.
Not that this is anywhere
near any of the other photographs today for it is way south in the quaint town of Rye. But back on home ground and the
navigable part of Lancaster Canal. Part of the far
northern reach is dry because it was cut across by a motorway, but for years there have been plans for it to be re-watered and brought back into
navigation, not in my life time I suspect, but it is still pleasant to walk the banks. This weekend the season for sailing in a
nifty nautical barge, which has been laid up for winter, will now be taken up and down the canal by the Lancaster Canal Trust. If the weather keeps as warm as it has been this week it will be a popular and pleasant trip. I wonder if the weather will bring
nymphs and
naiads out on the water
, perhaps only the insect variety.

I sure hope that cannon doesn't go off while the kitty naps.... That would be a terrible way to wake up!!!
Delightful captures for the N Day! Love the napping kitty and the lovely reflections on the water! Hope you're enjoying a wonderful week!

I've always wanted to take a barge along the canals in England. Some day! :D

Perhaps I'll share a barge with Leslie, as it is my dream vacation too!
Cute kitty.

Very NICE N.
Please come and see what my N is at Nostalgic marveling, thanks!
Great post - love the kitty sleeping by the cannon.
I enjoyed my visit to your part of the world. Thanks for the look-see. I hope that the canal gets refilled much sooner than later.
Beautiful images. The Lancter canal is very scenic.
Quite bucolic - lovely photos.
