Well, I think it may have happened.. are you getting tired of traveling? I sort of am, and would like to get back to ranting about being called "guys" and asking if I was "steell werkin' on that", but darn it there are still
lots of interesting things to see in England (and I have not forgotten France),
but what’s a blogger to do? I have tried
many a time to say “I’ll just be brief” and it doesn’t happen. I guess I could tempt you with things like a simple
picture of the “Triangular House” we visited after leaving Oxford on the way to
York
you would have to see from above to see the triangular shape
Built by Sir Thomas Tresham in 1593 as a testament to his Catholicism (not so good in England then),
it contains a phenomenal number of religious symbols (the triangular house =
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost); described as: three
floors, trefoil windows and three triangular gables on each side. On the
entrance front is the inscription ‘Tres Testimonium Dant’ (‘there are three
that give witness’), a Biblical quotation from St John’s Gospel referring to
the Trinity.
Or, we could walk around the old city of York:
and it’s magnificent Minster
Where we also visited a restored town house, “Barley Hall”
And yes, that is a live human person, quite entertaining
In walking around you always have to keep your eyes open..
I spied this through an open door.. I have no idea what or who or where
But it is an intriguing image
The end of that day found us in Harrogate, home of the “who
had the….” meal in the hotel and the next night’s dinner in BED
The next day (see, I can move along) we toured the cathedral
in Durham (no photos inside, please)
And I was privileged enough to visit a nationally recognized
facility
In the afternoon we visited Castle Howard
The next day we left for our last full day in England
And for our previously described last restaurant meal in England (BED) we were
DFD
