Annual fall trip with Abby & Eric, again to the UK Læs mere
  • Interview at Radio Bath, then Heathrow

    23. september, England ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    Simon picked up us from our AirBnB, and SOMEHOW we miraculously all fit into his compact car with all our luggage!

    We drove to his radio station Radio Bath, although he called it his self-sustaining charity that happens to use radio as the medium. He recorded an interview with Eric (with Abby & Joe jumping in - obviously not me with my voice restriction). It will be great fun to see how he edits it down to a 15-min segment that he'll then play for his listeners.

    The place has an upper floor, which Simon hopes to convert to a podcast studio, a green screen, and a classroom, so different educational charities can bring youth in and expose them to media creation. Really, it's a brilliant idea.

    We caught the next train to London Paddington (and a nap), where we snagged lunches at the station's Sainsbury grocery. A sandwich or wrap, a snack (crisps), and a drink, all for £3.50 each! Gobbled them up in the station's waiting area and then hopped on the Heathrow express. 20 min later, we were at Terminal 2, looking for our airport hotel. It's a bit pricey, but we can just walk to the terminal for our flight tomorrow.

  • Timber Point

    29. september, Forenede Stater ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    After 3 days of traveling, including a trip to Brunswick to check out some real estate with A&E, and bussing back to Portland to catch the bus to Bangor to pick up a car for the duration, along with some art exhibits and breakfast at Bagel Central to see our niece Bekah in action, and a visit with a college buddy of Joe's, we are finally at the Point near Biddeford.

    Lisa and Paul came out so we could join them in spreading some of Karen's ashes. It was lovely of them to think of us.

    Somewhere along the line, Joe picked up a nasty stomach bug, but is recovering now. So we are just chilling here. And a beautiful place to chill, it is.

    Calling this the end of our Cotswolds trip. Thanks for following along, everyone!
