Site 52 here at Indiana Dunes State Park was going to be great for watching tonight’s eclipse. We set up our chairs with a beautiful view of the Harvest Moon in a clear sky at about 7:20PM Central. In about 20 minutes the clouds started moving in. Two hours later we’re ready to give it up. The cloud cover is so thick there’s no clue as to where in the sky an eclipse may or may not be happening. Guess we’ll just have to tune again next time! Eighteen years?
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.
Does look like a good sky scene for a Halloween night!
