Pile It Up

         For most folks, closing out another year above ground is generally considered a good thing. Anyway, a thought written down by a good, old, Celtic friend of N.W. Wales, during his "good old days" states -

                                               "I have made a heap of all I could find."

          His contemplation has generated laughter among my own thoughts of time along the many hallways of history we have travelled. What a hoot! Pile it up for 2025. Onward to 2026!

From: Nennius, Historia Brittonum (History of The Britons) ca. 829 A.D. when my own ancestors were just getting planted among those mountains. His file is found in my research notebook # 203 [RN #203].

P.S. Here is a scan of the part of an early map drawn during the 1200s A.D., showing "Wallia" and, the part of my ancestor's world, as seen from this hallway of time. Original is held in the British Library (Cott. Cloud D.Vl Folio 12v).
