Ohhh, how sad it was to have to leave England and travel back home!!! Of course I missed Baker B and the kitties terribly, but I wanted them to join me in England - not for me to return to the US. Sadly that could not be, so return to the US we did, on…

OMG, I am... almost finished. So now I'm going to be experiencing the sad end of a wonderful trip all over again. I've got one more entry after this one, the journey home/wrap up one. And that is IT. Finally. (lol, I started this entry DAYS ago. I've been spoiled at work for weeks by…

The tower is all that’s left. The Tor, which is the hill itself, is terraced, and the terracing may be the remain...

Clearly I AM capable of making more than one entry every six months-- maybe when I'm done spitting these England ones out, I will remember that. And make one more than one entry every six months. I may actually finish England this week!! It's really helping that I have exactly nothing to do at wo...
