'The redbreast whistles from a garden croft; and gathering swallows twitter in the skies.'
We are leaving Hunters Moon at Wigrams Turn for for a week or so while we return home for Sid to have a heart monitor attached prior to his procedure.
Sunday dawned bright and breezy and we travelled the short distance into Braunston to visit the facilities and find a mooring before going to All Saints for the morning service. Once again we were made very welcome and Sid has been invited to visit the bell tower and maybe have a go at ringing!
It was very, very busy on the water, the fine weather obviously bringing out boaters from all over the area.
After church and a quick lunch we left our mooring and headed along to yet another of our favourite moorings about an hour out of Braunston. However, banks were full of moored boats but we managed to find a space and all afternoon boats were to tooing and froing ! Amazing when we remember how few boats we had encountered until we arrived at Fazeley Junction and from then on.
The evenings have really drawn in now and are getting steadily cooler but we were lucky enough to enjoy a lovely sunny evening on Sunday.
It must be Monday because yet again it is raining when we woke. It was about an hours journey to Wigrams Turn on this rather cool and damp morning .
When we return after the 5th October we will slowly make our way back to Fenny Marina where we will over winter as usual.
We are following with interest. Thanks for your kind message on our blog. Hope all is well and Sid gets his procedure date now and that you are back on boat resuming homeward travels. Love to you both from the US of A xx
