Minus a Few

Family

Epiphany has passed. It’s time to dismantle our lovely Christmas tree and pack up all the seasonal decorations. We both really enjoyed immersing ourselves in all things Christmas. The tree lights and Christmas Instrumental music were on all day every day from the Saturday after Thanksgiving until Epiphany. It helped to soothe our souls and to cheer us through some amazingly cold weather. As we pack up the ornaments we’re laughing again about a hilarious moment we had while decorating the tree that resulted in several of our vintage glass ornaments being crushed and the two of us belly laughing long and hard. We’ll use the extra space in the boxes for a few fragile non-glass ornaments as we pack these treasures up to live on a top shelf until it’s time to brighten our lives and trigger our memories again. Happy New Year!

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead 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.
