Road Trip with Lou & Bill

Florida, Road Trip, States

Wednesday morning we packed up and stowed all our luggage and treasures in the bed of Eric the Red and headed north to Tween Creeks. We and Lou and Bill have traveled together before. Or first road trip together was Arlington, Texas to St Petersburg, Florida back in The Spring of 1977. That time we had to make frequent stops to stretch our legs because Karen was pregnant. This time we made frequent stops to stretch our legs and search for geocaches. One of the searches took us into historic downtown Micanopy. We two have traveled this stretch of I-75 countless times over the last few decades and this is the first time we have actually visited this wonderful Old Florida town. We paused for coffee and wonderful pastries at Mosswood Farms Cafe.

Wicked The Musical

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream.

London’s National Portrait Gallery’s temporary exhibition, “Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens” presents an amazing collection of portraits, jewelry, personal effects, books, costumes, and more to illustrate not only the lives of the six women who married the second Tudor king, but the effort across five centuries to keep their memory alive.

Caligula at Strawberry Hill

Caligula at Strawberry Hill

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
