    Gorgeous.

    To a Montana boy, that color green seems surreal.

    Was there any naked drum banging? I'm not a huge fan of drum banging, but naked hippies can be fun.

    We didn't see any naked .
    Might have been too cold.
    We got there later to go around Avebury Manor.

    Children of the Stones- what a great series! I read the book as well.
    Had a major crush on Katharine Levy (Sandra).
