[28/04/2010] My mother, sister in law and I made our way up the hill in the market town of Bakewell to the All Saints Church, which housed the Vernon Chapel. Going in we expected to fine the stone markers of Vernon ancestry adorning the walls and the entombment of John and Dorothy Vernon Manners. Instead we found a most intimate small chapel, gorgeous pews, and a beautiful alter highlighted from the stained glass windows above it. We looked all over for the final resting place of John and Dorothy Manners. We did not find them. Not to be deterred we went into a small room just off the chapel and found a [more]

[19/01/2010] Our family Christmas is often spent traveling either here or the UK. Such was the case in 1986. As educators and self employed business owners, we could take up to two weeks for trips. REAL! We were going to Southern California via Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. The winter was indeed proving to be cold, snowy, icy and did I say cold, for we had noticed that the wooly worms had more hairs spikes than usual and the inside of of the chinquepin nuts was in the shape of a spoon, meaning shovel, denoting someone would be shovelling snow and lots of it. REEL- NOT!, for the weather c [more]

[09/01/2010] Shenandoah Crossing Lodge and Hotel We were invited to enjoy a week at the Shenandoah Crossing Lodge and Hotel; Gordonsville, VA in August of 2009 after my husband experienced a medical problem just before our departure for the three week road trip. This venue is at the end of a lane off the main highway going south through the State of Virginia. There is a subdivision of permanent dwellers in that area. After passing the gate house for the compound, one finds many delights. You may check into a hotel room which is part of the Lodge, a chalet, or log cabin. We had at our disposal a [more]

very good

[04/01/2010] After leaving Waterloo Station and arriving in Dorchester 4 miles from our destination Bed and Breakfast, we found that the train in fact did arrive late by 2 minutes and we had no one to pick us up. We gather all our belongings at Dorchester South and go into the Station waiting room. Only an agent was at his post in the whole of the Station. We sit down for a moment to collect our thoughts and inventory all our stuff: 1-21" roll about, 2 backpacks, tote for laptop and other office supplies as this trip is a working trip as well as pleasusre, 2 camera packs with gear, all there but it wo [more]

[02/01/2010] 18 years ago, December 31, 1991 was gift of a century spending New Year’s Eve in London. We took a family vacation to London for a week. Dear Hubby, our daughters, Micah (12) and Malia (8), and I left Little Rock, Arkansas USA on December 26, 1991 with American Airlines Fly Away Vacations, staying in the White House Hotel, now the Sol Melia White House and returning January 2, 1992. Being out in the Regent’s Park area, we had the experience of taking the tube everywhere and undergrounds abound: Great Portland, Euston Tube and Euston Train Station and Tube. We also have standard class B [more]

[31/12/2009] We start our second day in UK, 1997 at 3:30am. When it comes to trains, planes and schedules or appointments in general Hubby is all about being on time above all else. We leave the room, check out, and the bellman hails a cab for us at 4am. To our surprise it is not the normal black cab it is the one painted with the British flag. Cool! The streets are vacant except for the delivery trucks rushing to the hotels and eateries delivering the fresh orders from the warehouses for the day. Not knowing the time of opening at the Station, unusual for DH not to have found that out the night b [more]

excellent

[26/12/2009] On our anniversary on December 19, my husband and I went with Little Rock Tours from Little Rock, Arkansas USA to Tunica, Mississippi USA for dinner at Paula Deen’s Restaurant. The restaurant is in Harrah’s Casino in the river. All casinos on the Mississippi have to be floating not on land. Tunica is just south of Memphis, Tennessee. We left Little Rock about 3:30pm and arrived for 6 pm dinner. On the way eastward we enjoyed the movie Julie and Julia, a bit of a pun, for the trip. Leaving the driving to them was a treat for us. We have not taken escorted bus tours in the USA, only in [more]

[26/12/2009] After spending Thanksgiving Week in Gulf Shores, Alabama for vacation and the wedding of our youngest daughter, we drove peacefully homeward arriving at 9:17 pm. Upon opening the door to our beloved house, in one step told us something was dreadfully wrong. Nothing had been disturbed at first glance, but the second step was squishy, the third was splash. We had 4 inches of water on our floors. Frantically we shut 3 water valves off from the back of the house to the front. The back was about 2 inches on carpet in the bedrooms closest to the bathroom. We moved splashing all the whil [more]

perfection!

[13/12/2009] Very busy for several reasons: great food, lotsa food, quick service, not fast food, busy, wait was 10 minutes, and name sake of an old comedy sitcom on television back in the 70's. Flo was the main waitress on the show and I am sure Flo worked there, we just didn't see her because it was her day off! Fonzie may have been there too! The building was large, long narrow steel covered and bullet shaped. Old fashioned hamburgers, milk shakes and sodas made by the soda jerk and any other food of the 50s and 60s that one would want. Juke box played songs of the era. Waite staff dressed in fa [more]

good

[13/12/2009] In our planning, we kept coming back to Maggie Valley, North Carolina as a stop on our road trip this past summer. We were gone for 3 weeks and for health reasons we needed a location from which to do short excursions of historical, picturesque, don't miss places and attractions. Maggie Valley was one of those stops. Before leaving home, we found this motel in the Triple A Guide with not much description, no mention of a breakfast bar or restaurant but good prices on the rooms. That rang loudly for us being on a strict budget. We looked the motel up on the internet. The site was fabulous [more]
