Left all the gardening undone yesterday and headed out for the afternoon in our small boat. Went up the River Wissey for about 4 miles.
Blue skies, 24C, heron, crested grebes, ducks with new broods, swans, heritage breed cows grazing the banks, only 4 other people/boats, and only half a dozen RAF Tornados flying low!
Wish I was quicker with camera as I missed all the birds and the newly emerging yellow flag iris in the banks. Husband did not put on his lifejacket, I did as I can't swim.
I can't swim and therefore I would not go on a small boat.
ReplyDeleteOnly ever fell in once. Pity I was 8 months pregnant at the time. Still the baby grew to have a good career in the merchant navy!
DeleteI love the water, you are very lucky to own a boat in live in such a lovely area. The photos are great.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous area to live in.
ReplyDeletePerhaps falling in the water encouraged your little one to enter the navy :).
