e spent New Year's Eve at home with close friends. Terry is here visiting from Dublin and Adam Millard is home visiting from London. Adam brought his brother Michael and a plethora of joy including Alexi who I met Dublin. I met Michael when he was working with Adam on Shakespeare by the Sea [1].

inny and I spent Christmas at Langdon Hall in Cambridge Ontario. Built in 1902, Langdon Hall was the summer home of Eugene Langdon Wilks, the youngest of the seven children of Matthew Wilks and Eliza Astor Langdon. Eliza was a grand daughter of John Jacob Astor, the immensely wealthy fur trader and real estate magnet from New York. Astor has the distinction of being the first millionaire in the United States.

We spent a few days indulging spa treatments and sumptuous meals with Wendy and Terry, new friends of ours from Toronto. Fortunately, Langdon Hall is pet friendly (the property has it's own pair of Bernese mountain dogs, Teddy and Miss Wilks) so we brought Chilbok (our Sheltie) and Wendy and Terry brought Brody, a golden retriever. See all the photos --> here.
