These are friendships forged back in 1970 at St Petersburg Junior College and cemented at University of South Florida. With George and Delores making their home now in Vancouver, Washington our opportunities to visit are infrequent and oh so precious. Today they made the trip north to Battle Ground State Park to join us for a visit in the T@B and then to find a geocache and to hike the Battle Ground Lake Loop Trail. It’s rated easy but the four of us thought it made our FitBits happy enough. We rewarded ourselves with some tasty sandwiches and salads as well as libations and Milky Way Chocolate Cake at Northwoods Public House in Battle Ground, Washington before returning to the T@B for more conversation. None of us wanted today to end. It was a fabulous day with precious friends.
Our walking tour through the historic heart of Stavanger gave us insight into the canning and maritime industries that fueled this community as well as some tasty tidbits.
Our short visit to Njardarheimr gave us insight into life in 11th Century Norway and educated us on the role of “Vikings” within the Norse community of the time.
