Bonnie here, reporting from Taos, New Mexico where I live.  Yes, Linda and I seem to always have had wanderlust and especially love Britain and Ireland.  I think that trip to England waaaay back in 1978 was our first together.  And, hard to believe this now, but we actually hitchhiked around England.  What were we thinking?  And this was a time when the so-called Yorkshire Ripper was killing young women.  Whoa.  But we were young and adventurous.  Now we're old and adventurous, but would never hitchhike!
