To celebrate this auspicious birthday, Steve and company hiked up the creek that runs in front of our house. The two of us hiked up to a huge boulder that we opted not to clamber over. Dave however had a standard to live up to. He climbed all the way up to “the witch house” as Greg had done on Christmas Day. Another part of the celebration was feasting on the delicious banana cake baked by Rhonda who along with Riley was unable to come with Dave this weekend.
Caligula at Strawberry Hill
The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
