Memories of the future

Before it had all seemed so simple: things cast shadows. But now it turned out that shadows cast things…

postcard 1919
Carissima –
I re-visited Étaples OPP yesterday & posted a ppc to you from the old camp – probably in a letter box from which collections are no longer made! For the Peace has quite spoiled Étaples. There are still a good number of men about but desolation already sits on the place – or, rather, it is arriving in instalments. The first letters of Ichabod are written there and sooner or later the writing will be complete.Sunday, 8 May 2011

Grindelwald. We have had a gorgeous day been over this glaciers. My boots are a sight the heels are coming off. We were 10 all roped together. We had a tremendous climb for 2 ½ hrs before we reached the ice. Yrs

WHERE WOLFE DIED

Monument to Wolfe the British General and Montcalm the French General. Who both fell mortally wounded on Sep 13th 1759 on the Plains of Abraham within a few yards of each other.
The latin inscription on the monument is thus translated “ Valor gave them a common death, history a common fame and posterity a common monument.”

Monday
I hope you had a very happy weekend at home. Today we have been to this … beautiful ruin. This photo does not convey anything of the wonderful beauty of the place. I hope you will see it + love it some day in the time to come. On the border of this garden is a wonderful clipped hedge with most wonderful animals clipped in box. A dog. A squirrel. An owl. A fantail pigeon, a whippet, a rabbit, a pheasant, a barn door + owl.
