This (re)tweet came across from my good friend Miranda from Viable Paradise. It reminded me of a little story… One of my friends is best selling crime author Donald Harstad (Eleven Days, Known Dead, and Code 61 among others). Don is a former Sheriff’s deputy from just south of Decorah…

This has been a good day. Woke up this morning and drove up to Lanesboro, MN where Steph and I hopped on our bikes and followed the Root River State Trail all the way to Rushford. That’s a mere 19 miles away. When we got there, we turned around and…

Apologies for lack of updates but there simply hasn’t been much to write about as of late. April is that time of year where work is busy, the writing is progressing along, and the weather is not quite perfect but showing glimmers of promise. But that all changes today. …

Continue reading →: Revision: Words vs Scenes
While across the pond, I purposely did not do any writing. Why? Well, it was vacation and writing is work. Sheesh. Beside that, I needed to reflect on some ideas I had and all the stuff I learned at the Maass workshop. I jotted down some stuff but mostly I…

Continue reading →: I Would Walk 2000 Years …
More like 12+ miles but we did it alongside a wall nearly 2000 years old. Hadrian’s Wall – built by the Romans to define their northernmost borders (and to keep the army busy so they wouldn’t revolt). There isn’t much to say other than it was amazing. We started off…

Every vacation needs a bit of time away from the whole tourist thing. Today was that day. We left Bristol early this morning and caught a series of trains to the little village of Haltwhistle. Haltwhistle is very close to Hadrian’s Wall, an ancient wall built by the Romans in…

We left Cardiff this morning and, after a brief stop in Bristol where we are staying the night, headed to Bath. Bath is a town famous for the Roman baths that give the city its name. They were said to have restorative powers – Queen Mary stayed in Bath when…

If there was one sight Steph insisted on seeing while in the UK, it was Tintern Abbey. Remarkably for being such a large tourist draw, it’s not the easiest place to get to but Steph had all the routes figured out so we headed out this morning to beat the…

Continue reading →: 2 Castles, 2 Countries
Wednesday was our last in London but we had enough time before our train left for Wales to fit in one more sight. So we went Underground to the Tower of London. The Tower of London is more than just a single tower; it’s an enormous castle that also hosts…
