I'm a retired educator (teacher/principal) who moved from Northern California to Payson, Arizona in September, 2010.
This blog will chronicle my adventures as I explore a different ecosystem and build my new home.

Wales Part I
After a ten hour plane ride, we needed to drive another 4 hours to Emily and Shifty's house. We stopped in Cardiff for a bite to eat.
I could have shot garden gates and fences all day long.
This is walking near Emily and Shifty's house. Everything was green and lush. Quite a contrast from the dry southwest.
We went to the local butcher shop for quite a bit of meat. Emily and Alex support the local shops rather than buying food at Tesco's (like Safeway). The butcher was roasting a whole pig for someone's party.
We went down to the docks in Milford Haven as they were having a festival to celebrate Fish Week.
Lots of local food products for sale.
Shifty keeps his sailboat here. He races every Wednesday evening. (It didn't get dark until about 10:30 at night.)
Shifty's boat is to the right of the bigger boat on the left side of the photo.
We enjoyed walks to the beach.
