We have decided it's time to pack our bags and head for home. We have been gone twenty-two days. It seems like a long time ago that we arrived in Camborne.
The main street (High Street) in Stratford was filled with country produce this morning when we went out. It was a beautiful sight. Everything is organic over here. The market comes to town each Friday. It reminded me of Findley Market in Cincy. which is not far from our house.
The town also hosted a food fair. Howard and I got a taste of cashews in various flavors. We were not hungry (I'm sure that is hard to believe!) so did not partake of their home-grown pork.
One of the things Howard wanted to do before leaving was to ride up the river Avon and back. We were looking at the long boats which offer rides (at a price), when we saw one that had lunch on board. We did it, and it was fun.
You might remember back in the summer when the heavy rains in this area flooded the Avon into the streets. We saw it back home on the evening news.
It rained this afternoon. Howard read the ARTS & CRAFT book which we purchased yesterday. I enjoyed a nap. It was a perfect afternoon for both.
I am going to bring this to a close and go pack our bags. I hope you have enjoyed traveling with us on this wonderful journey. We have had the time of our lives.
Blessings to all,
Love,
Martha (and Howard)

It has been so wonderful to follow your travels through England. It has been a number of years since my visits. Your writing has provided a charming and wonderful peek into your adventures. Thank you for sharing them with us. Plus, it is so nice to know that you and Howard are enjoying yourselves. Your presence has been missed, but it is so good to know that you both are doing so well.
