So...no time for a proper blog today! It's our last day and there is lots to do before leaving.
Here's a photo from the restaurant where we ate dinner last night, which gives you an idea of the landscape around here (although it is a lot greener than it looks in this photo).
But, I wonder, would I rather be writing someplace like this? Malvern Hall as painted by Constable?
Well, my head has really been in Regency London:
Where are you today, in your head and in reality?
I'm wishing I were at a writing retreat. On the other hand, I'm very happy with the three rooms that were repainted on Friday and I nearly have the kitchen back in order again. :)
ReplyDeleteReality: at home avoiding dishes that won't clean themselves.
ReplyDeleteIn my mind: trying to decide what book I should read. So many on TBR list.
How lovely! I want to be where you are. :-) Instead, I'm at my desk, tackling one of my WIPs.
ReplyDeleteSob. I'm home now. Feeding cats and cleaning litter boxes.
ReplyDeleteBut my head is still in the Regency!
Lucky you and I'd rather be in W. Va than at RWA, in fact I'd rather be at home which is where I was and still am! I really want to go on a writing retreat some day, the sort where you lock yourself up and write and emerge for wonderful meals cooked by someone else. Heaven.
ReplyDeletejanet, this retreat was almost like you described. We each were responsible for one meal and we ate one meal out. And we were serious writers so we really worked!
ReplyDeleteYour last picture looks very much like State St. in Boston. The Old State House being there in the middle of the street.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, the words "Boston Insurance Office" can be seen above the entrance of the building on the right. A women and child are on the sidewalk in front of this columned building.
DeleteAnonymous, you are right! I did not notice that before. That is an actual historic print that I own and I thought it was London. Duh.
