We Scored!

Road Trip

We rolled into Pinellas County late yesterday afternoon thinking we’d look for a campsite for our little trailer at one of the rv/trailer parks in northeast St Petersburg but then had another thought. We checked the reservations website for Fort DeSoto campground and scored a waterfront site in the tent circle! (Hooray for mobile computing!) It felt like homecoming. Almost certainly we’ve camped at this site before. We set up the tent, got our gear organized, watched a beautiful sunset and spent a couple of salubrious hours sitting out in the evening air enjoying our novels. This morning we had coffee while sitting at the waterline watching the shorebirds and breakfasted under the watchful eye of a squirrel accustomed to being fed by campers. Today we plan to share meals with friends then head back to the camp to prepare our camp for a thunderstorm that’s expected to come through in the wee small hours

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week.

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
