It's fun to know that you Brits are no more future thinking that we in the States are. Take it down, replace it with something else, change everything, put it back up. Sometimes we seem to run around in circles never able to see the forest for the trees.

The steep climbs through the Pennines give plenty of good views. We especially liked the Incredible Edible scheme running there with the aim to provide access to good local food for all. Along the towpath and in boxes outside all the public buildings food was being grown for local people to help themselves.Ian and Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09509787452175841530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1735567962622470867.post-60352926211047746422012-04-03T10:53:48.169+01:002012-04-03T10:53:48.169+01:00Todmorden looks interesting.

There is a body of opinion in these parts (lower down the valley) that Lancashire is welcome to it.
