Lucky to live in the 21st Century?

This list shows the reasons why people were admitted to a mental hospital in West Virginia in the late 1800s. Some of them are priceless!

Meanwhile, in deepest France...

We went to the races at Pompadour last Friday. The winnings eluded us, apart from the very first race. We picked the only female rider and she did well! Our chosen horses came first in some other races, but alas, without their riders! A few people were dressed for the occasion, which made it quite colourful.

We have also acquired a new hobby. Geocaching is a treasure hunt, played with a GPS gizmo. We found two caches yesterday and there are many more in our area. It does make our doctor ordered daily walks a tad more interesting...

A normal cache

...and a minimalist one!
