Stratford on Avon

I've spent the day wandering the streets of Stratford-upon-Avon in absolute wonder. I visited Shakespeare's birthplace, the foundations of the house in which he died, and his grave. I've seen the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust's copy of the First Folio -- which is kind of like a first edition of 18 of his plays published for the first time as a collection -- and I've looked at multitudes of documents and images from the Royal Shakespeare Company's performances of Midsummer dating back to 1897.

Laurie-

Enjoying the updates...I'll email you the username/password to the middle school flickr account. This is a great place to share videos that are 90 seconds or less...you can upload to flickr directly from the flip.

Cheers!
Matt
