We Really Should Get Out More

 Like most of the UK's population we are under lockdown - confined to the house essentially - as the country, indeed the World, struggles on its way during the COVID 19 pandemic.  This is not too big an ask here at the now-extended water tower in winter.  We are in good health all things considered as as far as we know we have not had COVID.

Today there was hoar frost about which covered everything outdoors with glisten, not least a spiders web which straddled the space between the Shogun's front wheel arch and the wheel:











Proof if it was needed that the Shogun has not moved for a while.  The old girl is not forgotten though - she started first go today, cobweb or not.

Meanwhile this bitter winter continues to show the Dales in all their glory.  Below is the view from one of the accommodation rooms of the Station Inn at Ribblehead with the viaduct centre stage and Whernside in the background:



And here's one of Pen y Ghent with its winter coat on:














Meanwhile son-in-law emeritus Alan in Pittsburgh has done us the favour of recommending the water tower blog as a fascinating glimpse of life in the Yorkshire Dales.

And as cure for insomnia.
