Welcome to my strange alternative world of wargaming with toy soldiers: a game for boys from twelve years of age to one hundred and fifty and for that more intelligent sort of girl who likes boys' games and books (HG Wells, Little wars)

Dawn in North Kent
SE England is full of airports, civilian, transport, charter and military, so the sky is full of contrails. This lot are heading out over the South Coast towards the Mediterranean, Africa, Middle East and the Orient.
It's a pretty amazing city. I live 20 miles or so south of San Francisco and only get up there a couple times a year so I always feel like a tourist myself.
2. Its never too late to travel, if you make it over, I will be happy to show you the sights, there are some amazing old military spots that most folks don't even know are there. Fort Point and the old Presidio are not to be missed, also the Alameda Naval Station museum.
Dear SC 1. I have trouble sleeping sometimes. I suffer from depression.
2. I have had to retire due to stress (my kidneys started to fail, which tends to get your attention) and am still a bit agoraphobic about public transport, including planes.
But hey, it's being so cheerful 'as keeps me going. :)
Nice picture John. Up early to write or paint or both? Time for bed here near San Francisco.
ReplyDeleteJust up early. :)
ReplyDeleteI have changed planes in San Francisco on my way to LA but never managed to stop there. It looked a fascinating city.

ReplyDeleteI would love to see it but I fear my long distance travel days may be over.
