Time for a Pause

Family


Today’s route took us along a lovely stretch of highway in western North Carolina, across the northwest corner of Georgia, and into Alabama. It feels strange to be traveling without the T@B-400 behind us but it makes sense in this June heat with a family visit in Texas as our destination. A couple of hotel nights and family hospitality should work nicely. As the day wore on we were watching storm clouds ahead and checking radar on our Accuweather app. We’re finally into the storm with hail a distinct possibility and still an hour away from the hotel in Bessemer where we have reservations. Guess it’s time to stop and take shelter. There’s a Walmart at this exit. Maybe we can duck in and wait the storm out. Perhaps walk some laps, get some steps on the Fitbits, and possibly do a little shopping.

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.
