I'm writing it all down for my own memories, but am glad you are enjoying my story, too. That's actually a stool I brought over so I could sit there. The coffee pot is set up there, so each morning I'd open the windows to listen to the lambs and birds, make my coffee, and just soak it all in.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17103364860587388726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2504150188395321059.post-63468973322575318842018-06-14T07:27:05.447-04:002018-06-14T07:27:05.447-04:00I'm very grateful to be able to share it with ...I'm very grateful to be able to share it with you, Sandy.

Martha Ellen's right. So far you've had great weather. And I'm learning that there are a number of Beatrix Potter's stories I haven't read! Thanks for providing the links - that's so helpful. It sounds like the whole area you're in right now is dedicated to Beatrix and her legacy. That's great. No one deserves to be remembered and memorialized more than she does. Can't wait to see your visit to Hill Top. 🐇Janet Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04754470262654502312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2504150188395321059.post-63901475950594293212018-06-13T21:27:25.922-04:002018-06-13T21:27:25.922-04:00Several years ago I got interested in Beatrix Pott...Several years ago I got interested in Beatrix Potter, and subsequently read everything I could, including the wonderful "Beatrix Potter: A Life in Nature" by Lear, the Biography by Margaret Lane, and of course the wonderful series by Susan Witting Albert. At the time the owner of proprietor of Buckle Yeat had a blog; I tried to find it, but it must have been stopped. At any rate I remember him talking about Mr. Mac Gregor and that they took donations to help fund a children's park, (which I think has since been completed) and various other village causes. Through all these resources, I've felt I've been to Near Sawrey and the environs. Your visit is like a "re-visit" for this arm chair traveler!
