You make the wet things look good enough to eat!

Today in pictures, it was very wet, windy, cold, muddy underfoot, I loved every minute.


1. Jackhouse reservoir, with it autumn colours.
2. The new overflow, with a fair bit of wet stuff coming down, this looks good for the waterfall further up.
3. This used to be the top reservoir, now it just lets the stream flow through.
4. Brown bracken fern, its nice to see it go, as it takes over due to its poisonous properties, however it will be back.
5. I can see it, time to get wetter than I am already.
6. Not forgetting the fungal contribution.
7. And another.
8. Here we are right up at the coal face so to speak.
9. Last fungi, its time to head back.
10. This stream joins the main one further down from the waterfall.

With wet socks, a moist gusset and a smile on my face it was time to head home

Bit overwelmed by my imminent house move - hope to have some photos soon, once the dust has settled -enjoy seeing what you've all been up to in the meantime -a respite from all the work I have to get through at the moment... :)

Today in Pictures, it was meant to be a short walk down to the weir at Whalley, I don't know how we ended up on the top of the Nab.

1. Start point Spring Wood car park.
2. Heading away from the car park.
3. Tall grass is now spreading its seeds.
4. We were supposed to be turning back at this point.
5. Across the bridge.
6. Almost at the top.
7. As far up as we are going, Hapton Quarry and Hapton Scouts in the distance.
8. Down a different path, Whalley Viaduct, and Longridge Fell in the background.
9. Eventually arriving back at the bridge.
10. Along the river bank, and back to the car park.

It still looks lovely - lots of colour - and green especially. Most of the leaves are down at the back of my place. It was minus 10 degrees on my balcony this morning with lots of heavy frost. A harbinger of things to come. But driving to the pottery sale this weekend, I took country roads, and came across pockets of golden leaves still. :)

I feel for you! House moving is exhausting. Take care of yourselves. A turtle's pace is often best :)

It looks like it was a glorious day for a walk - I wouldn't want to stop either. Thanks for sharing!

It was a walk I hadn't done for a while, and the sun was shining, although we had an overnight frost but not to the extent you had, the sun is now low in the sky so long shadows are to be expected which makes it a bit more interesting.

Your welcome, I was in the park hanging over the railings.
