A Few Days in Kent

We carpe diem-ed it at the end of last week, and ventured to a small cottage in Kent- in the town of Tenterden.
D, who is sitting here with me now, tells me we did lots of fun things.

  • Like play at the playground nearby.
  • Go to the beach at Rye (horrible weather- video later).
  • Saw army tanks out for the upcoming Remembrance Day.
  • Went for walks.
  • Drawing and writing (video to follow).
  • Found mussel shells along a canal.
  • Went to a fireworks fest for Guy Fawkes (the fireworks didn't work, although we did have mounds of cotton candy floss).

We walked three miles along the beach and through the woods to reach this place.   Once there, we devoured barnacles, goat, fish, steak and razor clams. Washed down with coke, beer and regional white wine. And then grandma's chocolate cake, cheese and honey and coffees for the walk back.

She arrives!

Dorothy Wijnanda Park has finally arrived. A healthy, petite (6lb, 7 oz) baby was born at 1:18 pm today, 28th of June. Baby and mother are both recovering from the delivery at Kingston Hospital in fine form. The first Park female on this branch of the family in 5 generations gets her name from my grandmother (Dorothy M. Baetcke Park) and a relative on Bella's side (Isabella Dorothea Akers). And also inherits Bella's middle name. Any advice on coping with daughters is heartily welcomed by the father.
