Marietta

Road Trip

Had a wonderful visit with Dick and Dawn. First we did a leisurely circuitous walk from the parking lot to the restaurant where we met Dawn. It was a good chance to talk with Dick and to see a little more of this beautiful little town, the oldest in Ohio. Then a tasty lunch at Austyn’s and time to catch up briefly on one another’s lives. More important, a chance to realize that we really do want to spend more time together. Then all too soon it was time to climb back into the car for the eight hour trip home. It’s been a four corners of Ohio trip: Cincinnati in the southwest, Toledo in the northwest, Canton in the northeast, and Marietta in the southeast. It’s been a good trip but is is so good now to be home.

OUR VERY

LATEST

National Portrait Gallery

National Portrait Gallery

It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.

Bletchley Park

Bletchley Park

It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.

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.
