As you knew I would, I just spent the last hour enjoying the videos. Wonderful, love the animals especially Molly the propeller and the older dog as well as the kitties. I was as fascinated with one as with all. You are quite the traveler and I love all the water, especially the rain. Interesting heron, I've never seen that particular kind, though there are some around our lakes here. I've traveled through locks too and anchored out in the middle of nowhere in a hidden bay or two on Kentucky Lake. From here, one can go anywhere by water and I often wish I had that opportunity again. Down the Tombigbee Waterway to the Gulf or up the Mississippi to the Chicago and on to the Great Lakes. One could easily make that circle in any direction.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful views, I also loved the old old building but was a bit confused, a church or a place of punishment, looks as if it could have been both. Great gardens you have too, and all those kitties tending it. What a lovely place to live.
