Today saw me up at the north end of the Loop Line railway path that I sometimes walk.
I've not been to this particular spot for ages, and in fact maybe not even since 2020! When I was there last I encountered some horrible flooding that rendered the path almost impassible.
There has been a big improvement since then. It looks like an excavator has been brought into to drag some soil up into a raised emabnkment which has been surfaced into a footpath. Although the conditions have been wet of late, it was perfectly safe and dry.
I'm sure Keith will be quick to spot, however, that there's still a tyre there!

Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire.
