I'm me. I write, travel, and take photos. I've cooked a few meals in my life, too. Mostly iPhone here, Canon 5D at Flickr.

Who is that in the distance? Is it someone I thought I once knew? Or is it the same person, here, now? .

It’s been an interesting Spring. I’ve spent hours in the yard tending the flowers, getting intrinsic reward for growing things and adding beauty to our corner of the world. It’s been restorative during a sad time in my life—one of the very worst. Thank goodness for it. .

Bug torches employed.

Outside of painting a few rooms, and putting up a bit of wallpaper, we’ve allowed the house to get to know us. I’ve researched the previous owners, who originally bought the land and from whom. Who built it. Who first lived in it. In time, we’ll restore what needs restoring, but for now, all is well. .

Part of getting acquainted with this old house has been understanding the yard. There are so many different kinds of shrubs, perennials... and bulbs that I didn’t plant. Each morning, there’s a new surprise—like these daffodils. .

One year ago today, we signed the deed and received the keys to our new old house, miles and seasons away from where we had spent most of our lives. It was such a wonderful decision. We love our new place in the world!

A drive on last Sunday to get out of the house and feel more space. A much needed escape. .

The south side of the house has all the surprises pushing up through the soil. I planted my own elsewhere, but these are from years past. Such a gift! .

A recent snow after so long without. The old Copper Beech next door taking on color as warmer days approach. I love the seasonal changes so much here. .

London, off the beaten path, is full of back lanes and passageways to explore if you know where to look. .

Trinity Lane is one of those places you see photos of and wonder about. We happened onto to it searching for one of the colleges. .

If I can’t travel, then I think of it, wanting to peer down moss covered passageways, wondering about who has lived there, and how long ago. .

Maybe I’m also craving green after our first real winter. Like this scene from Win Green in Salisbury. This stand of Beeches sits atop a Bronze Age barrow—an ancient burial mound. .

I’ve decided to escape from all the frenzied current events and think about more pleasant things—like the trips we’ve enjoyed over the years. Our move last year counted as travel and with winter coming to a close, I’m feeling the wanderlust again. I hope you’ll follow along. .
