The images presented were taken in the 1990's. Taken as prints, there is degradation when going from print to digital images. Also, where we were traveling sometimes delayed processing for weeks or months and humidity played havoc with the undeveloped film. Still, I wanted to share our experiences through the pictures we took.
December 1996. As we got closer to Christmas, Peter and Sylvia extended an invitation to join them for the holidays at their home 18 miles north of Plymouth. Lower Kelly is the name of their village and Woodview, the name of their house. It was located on a quiet lane and an easy walk to Cotehele House, a well-known medieval house with Tudor additions. It's part of the National Trust, so it was interesting to take a path through the woods from Woodview to experience this piece of history. We also got to experience firsthand a British Christmas. Fun!! December 1996. While wintering in Plymouth, we met Ed and Liz. Also avid sailors and boat-people. We were lucky in that they loved to walk, so we got to see some lovely countryside around Plymouth. The trails are everywhere, and they took us some doozies! They took us under their wing and we became very good friends. These pictures are of a hike we took near Salcombe. We brought sandwiches and drinks with us to make a day of it. |
