The Umbrella

Last time I was in England (3 years ago), I kept seeing these domed clear umbrellas. I just had to have one, but couldn't find one anywhere. Finally, toward the end of our trip I found one at Hampton Court Palace. Oh, it was lovely. Clear with a black trim on the bottom and little black images of the Palace. Of course I immediately purchased said umbrella. Later that evening, a close and dear love of mine (he who shall not be named) left my dear sweet umbrella at a restaurant never to be seen again.

3 Years Later...
I located the umbrella. Not the same one, but a similar version of my lost treasure. This one is clear with black trim and the words "I love rain" written on the side. I got to use it today for a brief time and it was glorious. I don't think it will fit into my suitcase to bring home, but I shall love it while I am here. Oh sweet sweet umbrella!

  1. Surely you can bring home the lovely umbrella and of course the baby sheep! They would be nice reminders of the trip. Max still is carrying around the hedgehog but today when I threw it, Cletus found his inner puppy and galloped after it!
