Wycliffe Hall in the Spring


Down in Oxford, we have been staying at Wycliffe Hall, named after John Wycliffe. The photo directly below, shows where Steve and I are staying.
Go down the steps to the door. On the ground floor, the set of 3 windows, left (that you can't see, but know they're there) on the ground floor is our room. The back yard (garden) at Wycliffe is pictured on the right. That handsome dude stopped to
take this photo, as he was on his way to Rhodes House to do
research. It's been so pretty outside, it's hard not to enjoy everything in bloom.

Oxford and the countryside

Oxford is full of tall buildings. We're in the center of town. We're at the Christ Church Cathedral and surroundings.


Above, left, is in downtown Oxford, where the road forks and there's St. Giles church in the middle. The walkway, in the middle of a graveyard with the pretty trees in bloom don't make the church and graveyard scary!! Immediate left, is typical this week of the country roads, trees in bloom and stone walls. They have moss and vines growing all over them. It's unique. Do you see any of that in USA?
