We spent a wonderful afternoon with Tom & Kathy and their offspring. It was our first visit with MB & Chris since they wed, and a good chance to catch up with Neil and with Paul. Following a delectable brunch we drove to Sugarcreek Metro Park to hike. One of the special spots is the Osage Tunnel. These Osage Orange trees were planted in the late 1800’s as a fencing much like one of barbed wire.
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.
