Ken & Janie's JOURNEYS
Walk along the canal in Mossley, England
12th October 2008

Ken and I didn't do much this weekend but we did go down to the canal that runs through Bottom Mossley (we live in Top Mossley or some people call it Upper Mossley - haha!) and we took a walk along the canal.

Not too many pics this time so ya should be able to view the album in about 5 minutes. It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed being out in the sunshine.

Also we were so happy to see Mr. Goose! I had named him that when I first came over here in 2002. We hadn't been down to the canal in a good while so was afraid he might not be around anymore (we think he's old) but there he was - in all his glory, ruling the roost, as usual! haha!

Just click on first thumbnail photo and then NEXT each time to see the photos or SLIDESHOW, but I prefer NEXT as it gives more time to read the descriptions under each photo. ALSO you can click on the photo when it comes up - to get the original size if you want to see something better.

Enjoy your walk with us.
Janie & Ken
