Where It Began

Family

During the time the family lived in Blue Ash the two of us were already engaged to be married and we were both finishing up our professional studies in Florida. The one significant landmark for us was the family home. It was here in 1973 that Karen’s parents hosted our wedding reception surrounded not only by parents, siblings and Karen’s grandparents but aunts, uncles, and cousins on both sides. It was a glorious gathering. And it was from here that we ventured down the sidewalk and the steps, while being pelted with rice, to a balloon filled car to attempt our getaway and begin our life together!

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.
