Time for a Pause

Family


Today’s route took us along a lovely stretch of highway in western North Carolina, across the northwest corner of Georgia, and into Alabama. It feels strange to be traveling without the T@B-400 behind us but it makes sense in this June heat with a family visit in Texas as our destination. A couple of hotel nights and family hospitality should work nicely. As the day wore on we were watching storm clouds ahead and checking radar on our Accuweather app. We’re finally into the storm with hail a distinct possibility and still an hour away from the hotel in Bessemer where we have reservations. Guess it’s time to stop and take shelter. There’s a Walmart at this exit. Maybe we can duck in and wait the storm out. Perhaps walk some laps, get some steps on the Fitbits, and possibly do a little shopping.

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating 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.
