Along the canal there were wild roses. It was on the off side, not the towpath side, in an stretch that nobody can reach on foot.
Have boat, will flower.
With the bow nosed in close, ot was possible to clip a small bouquet. These roses are in full blat but there are also some buds tucked in below.

Where a weeping willow hung low over the canal, the only option was to slowly boat through the hanging curtain of leaves.
Then: an enormous TWANGGGG. Something caught the solar panel brackets.
Amidst the twigs and leaves was a hidden limb with a diameter of 5 inches (12½ centimeters).
Out comes the electric chainsaw. That tree got a trim.

When the boat is in the water, the stern deck is about a foot (30 centimeters) above the water level.
When it's on land, it takes a substantial stepladder to board the boat.
