When we booked our site here at TimberCrest we asked to be near friends that we knew would be staying here this weekend. Jasper arrived Friday and we’ve enjoyed time with him late last night and today including a delightful trip to Baltic Mill Winery where we savored some local meats and cheeses alongside some Strawberry Blonde wine before touring the historic mill. Back at TimberCrest we welcomed Jeff and Michael. After lots of conversation and a T@B-400 tour the party moved to Park Street Pizza for some amazing pizza and lots more great conversation. The üCamp17 week hasn’t yet begun and already its off to a great start!
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.
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.
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.
