Amarillo Memories

2014 West then East, Road Trip

20140626-175533-64533230.jpg
We’ve been here! Forty-one years ago on our honeymoon, the two of us camped at the KOA in Amarillo. Even before that Karen’s family camped here in December 1965. They were traveling home to St Petersburg FL from a Christmas visit with family in Salt Lake City UT in a 1962 red Chevrolet station wagon named Clyde hauling a canvas topped camping trailer painted the same bright red. But tonight we’ll be sleeping in El Dorado south of Santa Fe. Tomorrow we’ll embark on the next leg of our rambling adventure.

LATEST

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

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.
