Antique Anvil

Road Trip


‘Tis not everyday that one gets the opportunity to volunteer to transport an antique anvil cross country but that’s what we have just done. Sherri’s dad owned a 

Peter Wright anvil from the late 19th Century that had come down to him from his Uncle Herb. Sherri wants to pass it on to her brother, John who lives just south of Seattle   The problem was how to get it to him. We stopped by this evening. Sherri and her nephew Josh loaded into the bed of our truck and we packed our life vests and inflatable kayak around it for the trip west.

Once that task was accomplished the two of them treated us to a tour of the homestead including a peek at the Ford Model A in the weeds at the back of the property!

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.
