CW Vacation – Day 3 2023

Tuesday 4/25: I will split day 3 into two or three parts and they may not be in exact order. But here we go. It was another sunny, beautiful morning – and this is the view from our window. And the back courtyard — and the lock that has a sliding cover to hide the keyhole.

We walked the streets early and they were mostly empty – We were waiting for the bakery to be open so we could have breakfast! Found lots of trees with knarley roots and a fringe tree. The back road to the Publick Gaol (Jail) has a quaint little house – I have that one picked out to live in…. 🙂

There is a flock of Leicester Longwool Sheep in the pasture by the Gaol. There were a few employees brushing and trimming knotted hair from the sheep. One decided to talk to us at length. The creek was right across from the sheep pasture.

He had lots to say!

After the Gaol we walked up and toured the capitol building, learning and relearning our nation’s history from even before it was a nation! Below are photos we took inside – and I like the two taken from the windows.

Upstairs meeting room – where decisions were made
Where petitions were heard
The Governor’s chamber – HE made decisions, too!
Order in the court – God save the King!

I’ll try to finish day 3 tomorrow…. Maybe…
