A walk to the end of the line

A typical misty autumnal morning greeted us this morning as we left Yarwood for a walk to Snarestone, the current end of the Ashby navigation.  We being, Fletcher, Floyd and I..
We left Joe preparing to touch up the gunnel's with a bit of raddle paint.

The end of the line... for now

  2. My comment must have been lost - how can Floyd be that age? Where does the time go. He still looks as handsome as ever - met some real, seriously, anti Floyd stiles today and thought of you all
