At last, I have had a taste of home with a quick round trip to the States for a funeral, but on the up side returned with a companion for a week! Hope has come to visit and will post her adventures in this blog as well as I imagine she can cast a new light on my life with Tate in the great UK.
Among her accompanying me on some weekend visits, she has explored the local towns, Tetbury and Cirencester; journeyed to Wales (to give a foal plasma, of course, but then enjoyed the Tintern Abbey and Wye River valley later); had a day in London to visit Hyde Park, the Royal Mews, The Tate Modern, and to see “A Midsummer Night's Dream” at the Globe; and the highlight of the trip, a journey across the country, the English channel, and Holland to Amsterdam for a couple days there for fun, and to collect a naked Sherman (someone got a summer haircut before leaving the states!)! So, I will leave that post to her as she's chronicled her adventures with my new (hot pink?!?!) camera that replaced the (lovely blue) one that drowned in the ford (a forever reminder of fords in the UK). Cheers!

Hi Kim, I had lunch with Hope yesterday to hear all about her visit and she told me about Sherman's new haircut. He actually looks cute and reminds me of Amy's dog Tanner. She also told me that he has a new Barbour coat like the ones I bought for Annie and Zeke. He is really British now.
ReplyDeleteI was in Athens yesterday visiting Annie at UGA. She is having surgery this morning to put a plate in her broken right front leg. She did that Mon. night playing with Zeke in the backyard. You know, if it's not horses getting hurt, it's dogs.
Hope said that you have been incredibly busy so I hope you are taking care of yourself as well as Tate. Hoping for a speedy recovery for him. Everyone here misses you a lot.
