TINTAGEL CASTLE: HISTORY AND LEGEND
Built half on the mainland and half on a jagged headland projecting into the Cornish sea, Tintagel Castle is one of the most spectacular historic sites in Britain. Its association with King Arthur makes it also one of the most famous.
But the history of this enigmatic place stretches back centuries before the first tales of the legendary king shrouded it in the mists of romance. Find out more about Tintagel’s history and legends below.

Dime Box, Texas (population 250)
http://www.texasescapes.com/CentralTexasTownsSouth/DimeBoxTexas/DimeBoxTx.htm
Originally Brown Mill after the local grstmill
https://tshasecurepay.com/land-rush/town/2054/Brown-s-Mill/
The US post office requested the name change because it thought “Brown Mill” would be confused with “Brownsville”.
A resident came up with the current name because it was apparently a custom to leave a dime in a box for people who carried the mail from Giddings.
The town was moved from the old mill site to be near Hwy 21, only to move again to be near the railroad when it was built. (there’s also an Old Dime Box where some stayed by the highway).
The town has a museum

In May 1940, the fate of World War II hangs on Winston Churchill, who must decide whether to negotiate with Adolf Hitler, or fight on knowing that it could mean the end of the British Empire.
This is a great movie of overcoming in an impossible senerio and showed me why my dad—a veteran of WWII and the envasion and liberation of Europe (he was with Patton’s 3rd)—had so much respect for the British People and Churchill.
If you haven’t seen it—try it—or if you have see it again, it might just give you the lift in mood we could all use— like then–almost the entire world is fighting a common enemy—Hang in there we can do this.
Zinc is a metal that often gets overlooked when it comes to healthy diets, but it is just as important as other minerals. Zinc helps in some very important functions such as supporting the immune system against viruses and bacteria. It also helps with our senses of smell and taste and helps with the healing of wounds. For foods high in zinc go here: https://10faq.com/health/zinc/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw2PP1BRCiARIsAEqv-pR-Je8Z3dco3xwcjd1WAsxvAOIxobKFxGu2DZYzAP6Vb-6JVhpE6nEaAnCYEALw_wcB
So while we’re already in England—lets check out a palace of much report—Hampton Court was built for Cardinal Wolsey—a butcher’s son who went from nothing to the church and managed to eventually be the most powerful church official in the country answering only to the King of England—unfortunately for him that king was Henry—of 8th fame and when you failed to produce for Henry you lost a lot and while Wolsey did not die by the king’s hand—he lost all he had and his possessions and was on his way to answer for his shortcomings before the King’s court when he became ill and resided in a city were another famous victim of the Tudors rested.
He finally did realiize his error—or maybe it was just regret when he realized his fate because of the path he chose when he uttered:
“If I had served my God as diligently as I have done the King, He would not have given me over in my grey hairs.”
Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, who died at Leicester Abbey on 29 November 1530. interestingly enough Richard III (killed by Henry VIII’s father) died near Leicester in a battle that gave the Tudors the crown, was and his body was lost due to the destructions of the monestaries by Henry VIII: check this site for some interesting items on Wolsey’s loss. One death gave the Tudor’s the dynasty and the other one of their most (in my mind) impressive castle.]
Searches have been done off and on since 1922 to find the man’s remains but to date all they’ve come up with is a King whose reputation has improve since the discovery.

Richard III, who was killed at the Battle of Bosworth in 1485, He was originally interred at the church of the Greyfriars, a 13th-Century monastic friary at Liecester (or what may have been the outskirts of the town at that time.

Stress: is a chronic condition that many of us know too well. This constant overdose of fight and flight leads to nothing but sleepless nights and ill health. Rest and relaxation are the best cures for stress and stress related problems, but ironically stress can actually prevent restorative sleep. ANd with loads of stress it’s hard for our bodies to decompress within the hours of sleep alone. So try to set aside some time during your waking hours to just sort of veg out. The key will be to try and quiet your mind and body until they both feel rejuvenated enought to handle another round of whatever it is that you feel is important enought to put them through.
