It was Lady Shimmer but it also had its other side of wishing for summer in May when some years it was still snowing.
Embankment , wish I could sketch, and history, living in another country gives you different perspectives on Battles and things
Perhaps my soul wil visit with a sketch pad finally able to make a picture

:) Waves to Ann ~~ morning Ann, how are you. xxx

Oh Terry,

It sounds wonderful ... scenery, nature at its best, peace and quiet ... no hustle, bustle.

Most people are so busy nowadays, never time to see what is around them, to absorb the atmosphere, appreciate the beauty that surrounds them.

One of my most favourite places is the Embankment in London ... I adore history ... the world flies past me, yet I am 'lost', imagining how it once was, sketching architecture and more. xxx

We lived in Hammerfest for a while and also Kirkenes which are North of the Arctic circle
most of the time eight years or more in Namsos which is just below the Arctic Circle
Miss the light and dark, summers that some times never started, bumping into elg, lynx (once), knowing 99.99% of the world 's population was below you.
Going for walks and never meeting any one else.
Knowing your kids were safe.
I could go on forever reindeer mountains, glaciers all the turisty stuff but also coming home at night seeing the sky alight with Northen lights, and the snow sqeaking that it's minus 25 C

Ah Lady Shimmer think you've caught the idea,
Happiness is where you can say it was a good time.
mY kids were born all over the place, but we all had fun in the Arctic,

Some religions and cultures say that when the body dies the soull first visits the place where it was most happy and content in life
Think my soul will either visit the Yorkshire Dales (that last glorious summer before leaving school ) or the Norwegian Artcic and sub Arctic
Where were you happiest?
