We stopped at Brewood to visit the butcher and green grocer before continuing out into the open countryside to moor a couple of miles from Autherley Junction. It's been a warm sunny day, we have been so lucky the last few weeks but the weekend isn't looking too good.

This time of year the falling leaves makes it feel like we are in one of those snow globes but instead of white flakes we have green, red and browns.
