Here Are Some Last Bits Before Bon Voyage

'26 August / August 6, 2026

Above, lunch, once a month or so = Ken, Carl, Mick, Richard, Josh, Ben

Below, my delightful current tenant Sam, who is leaving in a few weeks. I got to take her out for our Bon Voyage meal early because I won’t be here when she moves on.

The Monday Lunch Ladies, we were a smallish group this week – lovely table Marsha.

Ben and Bonnie. We made a vain attempt at Back on the Beach during a heat wave, on the weekend, in the middle of tourist season, at 10:30. We then spent the next 15 minutes circling for a parking place and eventually just gave up!

A Few More Days And A Long List

Getting ready to be gone and let’s hope for a lot of list-ticking in the coming days.

Windy and I are doing this trip, a week in Edinburgh for the Fringe Festival, the Tattoo, a remarkable city, and Luna coming up from London to hang with us for a couple days.

Then we are joining the tour above. Wow, right, hoping for the best in guides, weather, character-filled accommodation, and traveling companions. It will definitely be raining off and on most days, probably not for the whole day, but I’m very very excited not to be hot, with forecasts of highs 50s to high 60s. Ahhh.
