Coming Back Around

2016 Out West, Road Trip


Paynetown SRA near Bloomington was our second stop as we headed out for our 2016 Summer Ramble. In June we had reserved Site 22. This time, nearly four months later,  we’re assigned to Site 54. In the meantime it’s been a great circle across the northern tier, down the Pacific Coast, through the southwest, back across the Mississippi, and back into Indiana again. Full circle. We have plans to meet CJ and Phil downtown for dinner tonight and like we did on our trip here last fall, we plan to have the truck serviced at Bloomington Ford and get new shoes at J.L. Waters tomorrow. Earlier today we were discussing our plans for the upcoming weekend and early next week and suddenly it hit us that we will be traveling for only about another ten days. Neither one of us is truly ready for the end of this glorious adventure. However…we do have more plans in the offing!

LATEST

Wicked The Musical

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. 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.

Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens

Six Lives: The Stories of Henry VIII’s Queens

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.
