We are about to come to the end of this wonderful time in the United Kingdom. We have spent 5 wonderful days with our son Bill Barnett and their cat Stella. Great conversation and marvelous food. Bill is a superb cook so we felt like we were in a fancy hotel with a AAA rated restaurant. What a gift it is to spend that much with one of our "children"- no matter how old they get your children will always be your CHILDREN. 

We were passengers on a wonderful 7 night canal boat trip on the Llangollen Canal back and forth between England Wales.
We were invited by our daughter, Kathryn, to join she, her children and her friend Bruce Kennedy.  The four of them did all the hard work as we just watched in amazement.
