Errands Day

Family

Today’s the first of three business days we have at home before we head to Zephyrhills. It’s time to spruce up the road weary. We took Eric the Red to Rick’s Car Wash for the full treatment. Then we took ourselves to Jill’s Barber Shop for much needed haircuts. While there we learned that she will be cutting her presence here in Dillsboro to one week a month, meaning that we’ll have to do more planning ahead for haircuts or face the angst of finding a new barber. Next we stopped by Andy Shaw to get an appointment for Eric’s slightly overdue thirty thousand mile service. Yes, we’ve put twenty-four thousand miles on our “new” truck in less than ten months! And we’ve had a glorious time doing so! On or way home we met two of the new neighbors and two of the new dogs in the cove and we finished the day with sharing some of our California wine with neighbors Steve and Mary around the firepit on the deck surrounded by the lush summer greenery that graces our mountain home!

OUR VERY

LATEST

Imperial War Museum

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

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

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.
