Sunday 10/5/2025 Today was packed full of wonderful experiences and gems. Though we saw a lot, I didn’t feel rushed. We just enjoyed the journey together as the day unfolded. We knew we all wanted to begin with church at Salisbury Cathedral. The Eucharistic Service was at 10:30. After easing…

Saturday 10/4/2025 Last night, Jennie, Gregg, and I picked up Steve at the train station and drove an hour and a half to Salisbury. Steve has a small rental townhouse built in 1901 near the center of town so we are staying there for the weekend. It was rainy on…

Wednesday 10/1/2025 Hello, October! You arrived in Kidlington with a surprise drizzle this morning. That couldn’t change our plans. Jennie and Steve’s home has a lovely and relaxing small back yard. It has wood fencing on the sides and a brick and rock wall along the back. Directly behind their…
