House by the canal

I always like this house built right up to the Lancaster Canal.

Three good things:
1. I set off to go to the village for some bread & a good walk to stretch my legs. I ended up calling on a friend, sat in the garden & had coffee & cake...so much for exercise!
2. The friend has made me a lovely red gingham mask.
3. Harry dug up the first of our new potatoes!

@busylady @beryl Should have shown you the potatoes...we ate some tonight with butter & sausages & a couple of fried eggs each.

[Lou Ann]

A lovely view. Looks so peaceful.

[Maggiemae]

Oh, Yum for your meal! It would be nice to sit on the lawn of that house in a garden chair with a book!

[Margo Sayer]

Wonderfully tranquil...

I can imagine why you like this lovely house. We also had new potatoes tonight, bought them in a greengrocer's shop in a neighbour village. We don't have a vegetable garden.

I used to love houses with water views, now I wonder if they get flooded.

Nice setting for a house but you wouldn't want to be a sleepwalker would you. ha h a

[Jane Pittenger]

Nicely framed and looks restful

@joansmor Canals don’t flood Joan, allegedly anyway!

[Pat Knowles]

@onewing Ha ha no you don’t......I think it looks pretty but in real life I might not like that water near me! I am not a water person!

How lovely!

[julia]

Great looking spot .. does it ever flood ? .. wow first new spuds.. lucky you ..

[Pat Knowles]

@julzmaioro No canals don’t flood apparently & I have never heard of one doing so.

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautiful scene and capture. My son when in UK lived across the road to a canal and I really enjoyed going for walks along the canal every time I had a chance.

My mouth is watering over the new spuds. We have a few self set in the garden that may come to something, even tough it’s winter.
