Local Trips

Family

IMG_5458We’re looking at the world through the windshield of the car yet again. Today’s docket included errands to run all over WNC. Things to do and people to see in multiple locations in the region. Mail to collect, vehicle to get inspected, license tag to renew, hair to have cut, bills to pay, prescriptions to refill, eyeglasses to collect. Lots of stuff to get done preparatory to tomorrow’s departure to collect the new camper. Then back to the house and dinner with Peg and Lou and an iChat conversation with Greg. Then at 8:30PM things changed. We got an email informing us that our camper would not be ready until Thursday. That gives us two more days at home and with Lou and Peg but takes two days off our grand cross country adventure!

OUR VERY

LATEST

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

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.

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.
