Well, that'll learn us! We're back from our week of cool weather in UK's Lake District, to find that the week was as cool here as it was there.
It was an infusion of breathtaking beauty, overwhelming aesthetic overload. The stone walls that meander along roads and up and across mountain sides add to the natural beauty - it was like driving through an exquisite sculpture.
And every village, manor house and hall in one part of Cumbria is called HUTTON....so that must be where Ron Hutton's family has roots.

Unfortunately the airports were awful, awful... got us to the plane at the last minute every time, no pre boarding for wheelchairs. And our luggage was lost for the first day of the vacation.
But English food is great, and the beer....yum.
And now we're happy to be back home.
