Day one of the rest of my life

This life starts at Norton Junction on the Grand Union canal in warm sunshine. Chloe has left for her next rescue mission involving her sister Katie and our 3 eldest granddaughters, one of whom has broken out with conjunctivitis, thus has to avoid contact or activities with other children, including school.   Enter Chloe, Super woman,who has arranged to "babysit" for today and meet Katie at Watford gap services ,Katie heading north, Chloe heading South.
Following MY decision to continue with our current mission, rather than return home, we have left Norton Junction, traversed the top lock on our own and moored the other side of it for a leisurely lunch,during which the sun disappeared and light rain arrived, fortunately spotted before it could re-dampen the almost dry washing,which we rescued. I changed my plan to progress further as the weather forecast is for thunder and lightning so I have settled for this spot overnight, ignoring the proximity of the M1 and it's constant traffic drone, unlikely to rival the odd clap of thunder or two ?
