Autumn colors line the Towpath on a breezy Halloween morning. Wildwood Park, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
The Cromford Canal dates to 1794. It runs almost 15 miles from Ambergate to Cromford and was used for transporting coal and goods to the mills. It is part of the Derwent Valley Mills UNESCO world heritage site.

Another of my shots taken here last month.
Found on the River Wey,part of the River Wey Navigation,Ripley/Send,Woking.
It's amazing what you can find a few hundred meters from the town center. The towpath seems to be a haven for wild flowers.
The Thompson-Neely Homestead, New Hope, Pennsylvania
The Thompson-Neely House served as a temporary regimental army hospital during Washington’s winter campaign of 1776/1777. Ill and injured soldiers were brought to this home of the Thompson and Neely families for medical treatment and recovery. A young officer from Virginia named James Monroe, who was seriously injured during the First Battle of Trenton, convalesced here. In 1817, he became the fifth president of the United States. Wounded with Monroe was William Washington, a distant cousin of the commander-in-chief. He too recovered at this location. Captain James Moore of the New York Artillery died here of camp fever on Christmas day and is buried on the property (in what is now the Soldiers’ Graves area), along with other men who died either in the encampment or battle.
... a familiar environment.

Pedestrian and cycle traffic on the Birmingham and Warwick Junction canal towpath was certainly up on the usual levels, possibly due to the industrial action taking place on 21 June. A cyclist and pedestrian meet as 66303 Rail Riders awaits the right away with 4Z92 South Bank to Daventry Tesco company train which had been severely delayed due to issues with points in the Kingsbury area, finally departing 141 minutes down.
Just east of Queens Head nr Oswestry, Shropshire, UK. The near bridge is a farm access, the far one the Gobowen - Shrewsbury railway line. The tow path is very rough for cycling!
