On my first day back in England, I visited Down House (Charles Darwin’s home) with my family. It was not my first visit and this is not my first Darwin Day. But some of you have not experienced either of those things, so it is worth sharing some of my memories on Darwin’s birthday (b. February 12, 1809).
I am sorry about all the Pledge pleas. I did NOT add those . . . Substack inserted them. I will try to figure out how to suppress the interruptions in the future.
Words so often true: "However, more intimate knowledge might ruin the ideal that I have constructed."
What great sharing, thank you Lynn!
By the way, we made Mrs. Ogles chocolate cake (for Lena’s birthday), subbing butter for the oil. There will be no other cake in my future!!
