Unfortunately I missed the heavy snow we had in early February
..but I have these from the previous year when we had a light covering ...


The approach to the top lock at Bunbury ...




The view from the bridge by my cottage ...




Zoomed in a bit :-)










Bunbury top lock ...




The family of swans we have living with us by the lock :-)

 

Beautiful pics Jules!! I'd love to see your canals with a "good" amount of snow sometime.

 

That just looks awesome! Where do you live? Looks so nostalgic...

It has that appearance of creepiness that attracts me. The fog, the mold, all the green among the leafless trees. AWESOME!

 

thank you, I live in Cheshire, UK ...right on the canal system, the Shropshire Union canal ..I just love it here :-)

You can feel the calmness & tranquility just from looking at them ~ nice pictures. It's so dry here in CO, that looks so inviting.

 

thank you :-) ..it truly is a beautiful and peaceful place here, it's another world and far from the madness of the modern world ... this place hasn't changed in hundreds of years ... these canals were dug out in the late 1700s and now are used for mainly leisure ... it's a quiet life but 15-20 minutes in the car has me in the hustle and bustle of the City of Chester :-)

Nice pics Jules.
I take you dont get snow very often in your neck of the woods.....
Luv those cute little canals though

 

I call GROUP RIDE TO Cheshire, UK!!!

You definetly didn't take those pictures with a cheap disposable camera!! Looking at those shots i feel like I'm right there.

 

Um, we have have a 4mph speed limit ... lol,
