Canal: Stafford to Sandon... then back to Stone!

Away from Stafford to journey along the part of the Staffs & Worcs I know best; skirting Baswich, Milford, & inching through the busy-ness of the floating market at Haywood Junction... narrowboats everywhere, with Tixall Wide like a carpark!

However, once back on the Trent & Mersey, the countryside settled back to the bucolic & tranquil... despite occasional imposition from the railway line & A51!
We moored for the night a little to the south of Weston, 
& were furnished with a lovely, lazy evening.
If it wasn't for me knee...
I could be happy-ee!
Incredible sunset...
sweetly-soft night... 
Just a wee bimble, to get above Sandon Lock & stop in more beautiful countryside... filled with nimbly-wimbly lambkins!
Had a visit from some southerners... but were not disheartened!
... that there's the Trent... here's Sandon Lock!
Fantastic week...
& next time Leek!
