August - USA

Home to America, where we fit a year into 3 weeks!

It is most important to be with our family and we all got together, except Isaac appeared at the end of our stay! Thank you Kathy Lena for masterfully pasting him in. Here we are on the banking in front of the houses.





 A time for the cousins to get together again. Lee and Eleanor.


 Sister Molly with her beautiful daughters. It was so good to see Lily after many years.



Tom with his sisters Mary and Molly, on top of Molly and Rob's house.

 Sam took us on a tram  trip around Plymouth, which was really interesting 


 On our anniversary meal evening



Cousin Lee and Samuel enjoy fishing at Greg and Mary's house



Then Isaac joined us!



Tom's cousins are important too. Here is Jonathon up from the deep South!

Charlie and Lydia children of Rob and Anne below (Linda's adopted cousin!)


Key points in the itinerary:


The Judd's visit always bring joy.


The Triathalon weekend is always eagerly awaited.  Kathy and Mark stayed over.


In comes Eleanor ...


A trip to Martha's Vineyard was a gift from Grandma. Shh don't mention the boys fishing trip where the catch eluded them!


Fun out on the boat with Peter and Melissa. Ooh look at Linda's worried face as Peter was swimming with her camera! The great white shark had not been sighted then!



No trip would be complete without a good day with all of our friends and children. They have grown up meeting each visit. We miss them when we are home in the UK.


The Ragans couldn't get to us so we went to see them in Lexington and Linda visited Louisa May Alcott's house as a real treat.


The last day was the Antiquarian Fayre and it was fun making and selling Tussie Mussies, touted by a Brit!
