I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

Recent Archaeological Finds

I used to be fascinated by the field of archaeology and the histories of ancient Rome and Greece and Egypt.

Jay, in England, sent me this link, with the note that it is "Hard ta believe there's still things to find in this area."

Valley of the Kings gives up another secret tomb.

And according to the AP, Archaeologists Find Massive Tomb in Greece.
