This week Riley built a tea cart with from an Erector set that has been used and loved by four generations before her. The original pieces to the set date back a hundred years. They and the “newer” fifty year old pieces are kept in a box built by her great great grandfather Henry.
With Karen’s sister, niece, and her family we visited Stotfold England to walk in the footsteps of ancestors and to explore a lovingly restored historic water mill.
To meet up with some family members for the weekend, we headed north to explore Ely one day then Lavenham the next, two incredible historic communities.
As we begin venturing into Central London we explore Primrose Hill,the Victoria Memorial, the Gatti Ice House at the London Canal Museum, and the HMS Belfast with more adventures to follow.

Many an hour spend playing with that set. Did you know that Erector is still around and making sets?
