Pleasure Ridge Park

Family

We took a trip down Memory Lane this morning. We visited Pleasure Ridge Park, Kentucky, the Louisville suburb where Karen lived for six years before she moved to Florida with her family just after her ninth birthday. We went to Mass at St Paul’s and walked around her old school, drove past the old homestead, and ate lunch at the McDonald’s on Dixie Highway. Back in those days, before the Golden Arches, their sign claimed “More Than 400,000 Sold” and it was just a walk up hamburger stand. From there we drove to Cincinnati, spent the evening with Karen’s Aunt Mary and dined on Swiss Miss hamburgers at Frisch’s Big Boy, a Cincinnati tradition.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.

Excursion to Bath, England

Excursion to Bath, England

Bath, England is an amazingly inviting place with deep deep history. One little day trip isn’t anywhere near enough but we did enjoy delving into the history of the Roman Baths, basking in the beauty of Bath Abbey, and topping our visit off with Tea and Bath Buns!
