Not much chance for boating at the moment with another lot of frosty weather on the way before the ice from the last one has properly thawed. Chatting with a friend about his holiday plans for northern France next summer led me to go back to my old photo albums to refresh my memory about a trip to Brittany 20 years ago. It must be years since I've looked at those photos. Digital makes it so much easier, and these days I use the picasa web album site as an online backup and to give access from anywhere, with 20GB of storage for the princely sum of $5.75, (the annual bill has just arrived). It's very handy, as picasa indexes images on your hard drive, and if you wish automatically copies changes to the web.
Well, one album full of memories leads to another and before I knew it I was looking at pictures from a trip to New Zealand ten years ago, and wondering whether I shouldn't scan a few of the pictures in case I ever lost the prints. The one below caught my eye, and for some reason it reminded me rather strongly of
Radford Lock. Who would have thought that boating and canyoning could feel so similar...
