Wells
... lose permanent feeling in my feet. It seemed impossible to get warm. We went to Wells Golf Club for lunch, then said goodbye to Graham and Christine, before heading home to get changed for our family photo shoot. We all 'frocked up' and drove over to just past Meare to have some family portraits taken. Am excited to see how they turn out. Quiet night in tonight playing Rummikub, and pizza for dinner. Both Jen and Jonah are poorly with colds so they had an early ...

After breakfast, Jen and I took Kendra & Abigail over to the Village for a ...
Some Rocks and Shocks
... like a Soho restaurant. After a few glasses of wine and chocolate desert we decided that we were younger than we were and craved for more. How about an intimate pub with music and dancing? Bingo! We found it. (on a Wednesday night no less) An unbelievable pub playing a high spirited jazz band-“Zen Hussies” and targeted to our age group (college kids). Where were we? It was like a dream. It was one of those memories or evenings that get ...
