On the Road Again

58 Albany Road
After a long but pleasant flight, I am happily ensconced at 58 Albany Road, Stratford-upon-Avon in Miriam's upstairs bedroom with a view through a rain-spotted window of her delightful little back garden.  Think Seattle in a normal June and you've about got Stratford today.  I was out clipping lettuces for a dinner salad just a few minutes ago.
The Back Garden

No English welcome would be complete without tea, scones and jam, so I have a happy tummy even though a muddled brain.  We are in a contest to see if I can survive until some normal bed time:).  Odds are not.  Miriam is off with a friend to a reading of Keats, an invitation that I declined.  I'll see how my new mystery, Murder on the Île Sordou, works to keep me awake.  What a lovely change of pace!
