Last night we stayed at a family owned campground just north of Waynesboro VA where we took the opportunity to shop for groceries at the local Kroger. As we were poised to depart this morning we met JustJohn, a fellow T@B owner. He’d pulled in later than we did last night and will be staying a few nights to do some fishing. As we compared notes on our T@Bs we realized we’d met before at the 2016 gathering of teardrop campers at Atwood Lake!
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.

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.
It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.
