Connecting in Waynesville 

2017 New England, Road Trip

Stop number one on our Summer Ramble is lunch with Sharon & Paul at Fat Buddies in Waynesville NC. We four became friends in the early 1980’s and our older children were playmates. In the early 1990’s we were neighbors and our younger children were best buddies. As our lives got busier and distances greater we saw less of each other but the friendships endure. Now they have a summer home not far from Tween Creeks. The irony is that our schedules are opposite so we have to treasure the few opportunities we have to visit. Inspired by our T@B-CS, they recently have been looking at the nüCamp line of teardrop trailers and after lunch toured our new 400. With the tow vehicle they recently purchased and the kinds of travel they are considering, a T@G might be their ticket to adventure!

OUR VERY

LATEST

Caligula at Strawberry Hill

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.

Imperial War Museum

Imperial War Museum

London’s Imperial War Museum in Southwark founded even as the First World War raged offers insights into the myriad costs of the wars of the 20th and 21st Centuries. It was a most disquieting but valuable reminder of the myriad costs of war.

London’s Canals

London’s Canals

The two of us have long been fascinated with the history of canals and their role in the history of transportation, industrialization, and more recently recreation. This stay in London has given us new opportunities to explore and learn more about how canals contributed to the growth of this great city and how they are being used and preserved today.
