27k+ steps up and down a mountain, including 6km walk back to the camper for this view. And everything aches tonight.
Our campsites for the last three nights, along with “Mieczysław” the camper van.
Went to the Imperial War Museum today. 4 hours were all I could do before reaching saturation. I do love the Spitfire they have on display. And that’s a V2 rocket as well…the scale of the thing!
3 wks 🇬🇧 🇵🇱 🇸🇰 The red and gold shoes aren’t gonna fit in my duffle, alas!
Meanwhile in New Orleans…steamy summer nights are made for good cocktails and dinner with friends.
Meanwhile, I heard UV rays kill eczema so I am exposing myself briefly to them 😆 cuz old men get that affliction more than younger, apparently.
A lazy Sunday in New Orleans where the hot sticky weather finally caught up with us 😒
Mardi Gras 2026: Knights of the Round Table (although there were not enough of us).
On a fêté l’anniversaire de la demoiselle d’Orléans à la Nouvelle-Orléans. Even Dolly Partons came to the party.
On Joan of Arc’s bday, New Orleans celebrates with the Old Orleans.
Misty post-Christmas morning in New Orleans. Soon parades will be rolling past this now quiet spot.
Thanksgiving is forgotten. On to the next season of silliness in New Orleans.
Circa 2019, I just turned 50. I was two years into my job in Boston, but hated my supervisor there. I was working out a lot that summer to feel good in some small way. And I still use that same iPhone 😝
Fall day in Boston on Beacon Hill. Sometimes it’s good to leave the Deep South to remember there are places with four seasons of weather.
Iron Mountain Blue VW GTI in Boston. It looks good in every environment. #GTI
Okay all you scantily clad Halloween costumers, this is how it’s done in New Orleans. You basically gotta earn a degree in crafting and sewing while living here. Otherwise everyone assumes you’re in town from Atlanta 😝
