Walking the Ancient Path in a Modern World
On a particularly sunny day Kal and I planned to venture forth into the world in search of adventure. We had a plan, of course. A rough plan.

Somehow, two startling omissions had occurred. Firstly, Kal had never seen the reconstructed chamber of Barlodiad Y Gawres. Secondly, we had never found … Read More “Imbolc 2015 p4 – Germination at Trefignath” »
