#photowalk October Lucky Numbers

A walk today to complete our 50k of walking for the month, brollies in hand but not needed.

We strolled along the canal path, retracing the walk we did yesterday, the opposite way around. I noticed the numbers on the lock gates and remembered this photo challenge so here is my number.

We took a turn away from the canal and around a pretty lake and also walked past the first house that we bought in 1981. A real trip down memory lane as we haven't been back for over 20 years.

A lovely Autumn walk to finish the month.

Pavement walks at the moment, avoiding mud with my knee. This route made a pleasant change SueAppleRun. Thank you!

That’s a great find for the number challenge. I do like a good canal path! Nice!

And woohoo for your 50+ k of walking!

And lovely to go back through memory lane over 20 years.

Loads of numbers there! Very fitting for the challenge!

Happy walking!

Oh yes, more numbers.

It's funny, you feel like you want to knock and say, we used to live here 😆The house number was 6 too, so thats another one!

Thank you🍁

Well, if the people who live there are anything like us, they would be delighted if you did.

We live in a renovated, Victorian Postoffice that had a small shop attached. So we still have people dropping by telling us they bought their regular penny sweets in the shop that was in our house. And it’s always lovely to hear. (They also get a little tour through the open-plan dining and living room, where the tellers and sweet shop was located. We love hearing about their memories about our house! 💛💚🧡)
