Happy New Year

Family

Quite a while ago we made the decision to cancel our satellite television subscription and since here in the mountains we don’t have the option of bringing in over the air broadcasts, we rely on our AppleTV and our personal collection of movies and shows for our video entertainment. Happily that doesn’t stop us from being able to see some events in real time such as the national election returns. Tonight we watched an episode of The Crown on NetFlix then switched over to the CBS News App for coverage of the NYE party in Times Square, watched the Waterford Crystal ball drop, and enjoyed dancing in the living room to Frank Sinatra’s New York, New York. Happy 2017 to you and yours!

OUR VERY

LATEST

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

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

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.
