WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY (PICS)

[Fadez]

Went on a little solo hike to get out of the house.

Turkey Swamp Park

Nice little hike around the lake/swamp/woods area of my town.

[ROman]

Great shots.

[Cole]

Right now I am walking round the Bostalsee to counter all the bad stuff I ate today.

It is raining, but my IH gear keeps me cozy.

Out walking my brother's dog, and I spotted this one barking at me. I'm not sure how he got up onto the shed's roof.

[Seul]

Small ladder.

[Graeme]

@Seul:

Small ladder.

There was a trampoline next to the shed…

[Seul]

That was probably her escape route… Clever girl...

Trick or Treat at the zoo last night

[Graeme]

This is a farm just down the road from my father's house.

No, I'm not going to steal this for you @Seul!

Another view of the peel tower.

My dad lives in south Cumbria, and the border between England and Scotland was pretty lawless during the late Medieval period. The Border Reivers were raiders from either side of the border, and fortifications are common in this part of the world. I can think of half a dozen such towers within ten miles of here.

If you want an idea of how rough it was, two words originated during that period: Blackmail and bereaved. :o

[ROman]

The 2 words sound like our elections.

I was in Lancaster today to see Doctor Strange, and I saw a very appropriate sign en route to the cinema.

Lancashire was very big on witches back in the day. If you've seen The Seventh Son (probably not worth seeking out), or read The Spook's Apprentice books (I haven't), then some local place names crop up in them.

Between the Reivers and the witches, Westeros has nothing on the North of England.

The fall colors for 2016. Not as good as last year.

The nicest one this Sugar Maple.

Dog Wood.

[Anesthetist]

Really beautiful Twin. We've been fortunate this year to have some really great colors even in the city. Fall finally feels like it has arrived so we got the firepit out for some smores.

Thank you @Anesthetist  This year it is very dry so the colors are not as nice.
BTW keep warm by the firepit.

[Max Power]

Wonderful fall colours @twin

We were in berlin again.

[knuckles]

raining in London, it often feels the appropriate weather for this city- I know it depresses a lot of people but it's beautiful in its own way

I'll try take a walk along the river today

[Graeme]

Out in Lancaster again today. The castle is under renovation.

I also spotted a Morris Traveller. Not seen one for a while.

I saw this at the station. It's dangerous Up North, which is why we remember in this part of the world.
