To York

-

















From Leeds we are going to York
York is 35 minutes from here
as we go towards York now all green
scenic roads and farms
very green like in Grimsby
not like Leeds concrete look

Most of the houses are of red bricks
I see a quiet different small Church
on the way
opposite is small old style
Cross Key Pub  by  roadside

Big green trees by road 
nearby is a very big park like Hyde Park
Apartment buildings of red bricks
small Hotel " Hotel duo vin "

Now at York the main attraction
was of course centuries old Cathedral
Wall of York is worth to watch
old time wall around the city
with special gates
all special stony ancient architecture

 Bettys Tea and Coffee big Cafe
Hole in the Wall Cafe
Vanilla and chocolate icing cake
style gift shop
Thames like River walk but very run down
area I will be reluctant to sit here

York Castle was very old and the Great
Cathedral worth to watch
city of red bricks buildings

River running through City Centre
it reminded me of Dublin
Arch shaped Gates of city entrance

Pigeons walking around down town
the whole area of city center was
like Stony Path the round about
and the streets

there was a shooting for BBC 
Documentry film was going on
I had an experience to walk on the wall
there was a path to walk 
It was a unique experience

  January 12th 2024 It is around mid of January. Time for us to, start getting snow storms. This will be off an on, for the next couple of weeks. It is 10.15, mixed sunny cloudy morning, windy too. Gusts are 38 to 48 km.  Friday used to be my work day, not today. Kids day camp is going on in the library, at my work place. I am off for the whole week. I have to find my own things to do, to get busy. From Monday, things will be back on track. I will be having my regular work hours. It is 11.45, I am getting ready to walk to Tim Hortons. I take it as my second home. I know that it is cold and windy. I am all set with gloves, stole and three layers underneath my winter coat. I will be fine. Whites Road and walkway is, all clear of snow. I see some white patches of snow, by the side of road, under trees and bushes. This is the beauty of Toronto, snow cleared right away. It looks like a usual wintry day. No snow. Everything working, normal routine. Nothing stops, so is my walk. I am at Tim H

  July 7th 2023 It is hot sunny morning, 9.15 and already 24 C, feel like 26. I woke up early, done with my breakfast. Talked to one of my daughters, my middle one, called me from Grimsby.  She was going home, done with her work. It was a brief talk. She was busy, picking up her son, on the way from school. My other daughters are still at work. They will call me later on. We talk everyday, not much, just to connect.  I am busy with my computer. No message from my childhood friend. She never skips, must be busy. She was at her son's place in Sydney, was planning to go back to Perth, to be with her daughter. She must be stuck, other matters to be resolved. Anyway we have to find our own, "Things to do", to get busy, to make our day. Don't have to wait for people's calls and messages. I am busy playing Scrabble and Card games on my computer. Computer is sort of Blessing for me. I don't know how my Mom used to pass her time without phone and computer. How come she

  June 13th 2023 Beautiful morning. Great weather. It was raining all day, yesterday. Stopped at late night. I was working, Mondays are my work days. Have to go to play Darts. It starts at 9.30 in mornings. We were thirteen all together. Picked our numbers to make teams. Two boards with four teams. Three players in each. One team was odd, I mean with four. Anyway we enjoyed. Thirteen seniors on a rainy day, out to play, to enjoy time together. Amazing at that age. Gives inner peace. Boosts will power with affirmation that we still can do it. Rain or no rain, nothing can stop, to make our day. I think, will is everything behind your motto. When there is a will, there is always a way to go ahead, to move on, to do what you want. Today is Tuesday, weather is great 18 C, a bit on a cooler side. I am off, not working on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Last week I booked my flight to England. My daughters were pushing me for that. Asking me to come, to visit. Travel is too demanding at our age. Too
