The day turns to dusk on the River Medway

Living on a boat through a long, cold and hard winter has had its challenges, but we have no regrets.

Tonight, however, was one of the many times there could have been no better place.

As I walked home, the sun was setting, a mist covered the river and shrouded Medway Bridge, the air was filled with the smell of wood smoke and the fading light was perfect. Spring, albeit late, was finally chasing away winter.

This photo was taken on my phone from the front of our boat, the lights in the distance are Strood.
