A little off the beaten path we found Rockefeller Loop, another grove of ancient trees but fewer tourists. For a while we had it to ourselves. Here oxalis grows on the forest floor like a lush green carpet. We got off the loop trail to follow the Burlington Trail for a while across the South Fork of the Eel River and deeper into this awesome stand of enormous trees. Thank you Rockefeller fir helping to preserve this for future generations!
On the Hidden London Tour today we visited a number of curious places relating to the history of public transportation hidden in plain sight.
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. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.
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.
