Highway to the Stars. Top Story - September 2023.
Now, I’m not going to do this experience justice. I’m not going to be able to describe the feelings and visuals, but I’m hoping it’ll be enough to maybe connect or convince someone enough to seek this sight for themselves.

A Walk In Hulne Park, Alnwick
Introduction It was raining, but I thought that I needed to get out and get some fresh air this morning, so I thought I would walk around to Hulne Park and take a very short snoop around and see what there was. My friend Julie had told us that this was the Duke of Northumberland's "back garden" but when we went it was shut. It is maintained by Northumberland Estates and you can read about it here.

Wandering The Streets Of Glasgow
Introduction I spent four days in Glasgow in Citizen M with Fiona for a break from everyday life and work. I often go to Edinburgh but this was the first time in Glasgow for a very long time. This is going to be a very haphazard piece with random observations and photographs (do we still call them photographs?) from the time I was there.

Malaga and Marbella, Spain
In 2004, I took the opportunity to visit Girona and Barcelona, Spain. I returned to Spain with my wife and daughter almost twenty years later. There were two motivations for visiting Spain this past August. First, my daughter missed the beaches on the Florida Gulf Coast, and Spain's Costa del Sol region met her wishes. Second, my wife and daughter both took DNA tests, and the results showed, like mine, that most of our ancestry came from Spain and Portugal.
