@janallmac Penrith is in the English Lake district, near to Lake Ullswater.
@stueytheround Those were some well-shedded cows. 😁 What a beautiful cottage! I have an absolute weakness for all things built with stone; they look so stable and permanent.
@stueytheround @janallmac Wow this is just perfect! Enjoy the ambiance!
@Mauve_matelot @stueytheround
Wut? Now that's one I have never read about in Jane Austen, ever. 🧐
@janallmac Jane probably didn't know about that celtic kingdom having grown up on the other side of the country
@stueytheround
@Mauve_matelot
She was also too busy getting all her heroines married, I suppose. Well, that's OK, something new to learn about!
@stueytheround
@janallmac @stueytheround look up the Earls of Lonsdale and Lord Inglewood for local notable people or the county of Westmoreland or Cumberland.
Apparently Sir Gawain of the Round table is connected with the region.
@Mauve_matelot @stueytheround
I will 💯 do that!
(Side note: Minimac #1 was obsessed with knights as a pre-schooler, so much so that his teachers called him Sir Minimac of the Rectangle Table. The nickname has stuck, even though he's grown.)
What a beautiful country you live in. Enjoy! 💜
@stueytheround Oh how beautiful! I've read about the Lake District in Pride and Prejudice. Watch out for Mr. Darcy and his friends up there. 😁
@stueytheround @janallmac
Beautiful, little vacay?
@CinnamonGirlE Yes. This is Eleanor's hometown so we're visiting family, including nephew Bryn, the two week old newest addition. ❤️ @janallmac
@stueytheround @janallmac
Nice! That's beautiful. You and Eleanor have fun with each other and your family ♥️
@CinnamonGirlE it's been a crazy 11 months since we were here last. We are looking forward to better times and adding new happier memories.
@Mauve_matelot 💙 💜 💛 @CinnamonGirlE @stueytheround @janallmac
Beautiful. Home is like a reset to comforting times.
@Mauve_matelot @stueytheround @janallmac
Happy memories with our loved ones is the ultimate flex. ♥️
@stueytheround Oooh! Look at that! Looks cozy. Is Penrith... Wales? That's Wales, right? (Haven't googled.) Hope you're having fun and doing great!
