That’s me in Greenock, Scotland. Our (Glenn’s and my) hometown was named for this seaport on the Clyde River not far from Glasgow. William Black, a sea captain we were told, emigrated to Elizabeth Township PA and named a small village after what we were told was his hometown. NOT. Glenn did a pretty extensive ancestry search and could find no evidence Mr. Black had lived in Greenock nor that he had been a sea captain. Like so many others in the area, he’d been a coal miner. But he is buried in the original Greenock Cemetery.
My favorite travel partner and photographer Glenn took this … and most of the photos you’ll see in the blog.
Can’t wait!

Felt that I was with you especially in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Perthshire.
Pity about the rain, but here in oz we are missing the rain badly.
