Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, born on May 22, 1859.
Happy Birthday, ACD!
The Sherlock Holmes books and stories made a huge impact on my life, as I read them when I was young.
Am thankful for that, even if much of the British Victorian social mores ACD depicted are unconscionable in modern times.
Indeed, we attended the play "Baskerville" at the Chemainus Theatre, in Chemainus, British Columbia, on Vancouver Island.
Dinner and a show, and both were terrific!
The actors of Holmes and Dr. Watson played only those roles, while the six or seven additional cast members changed costumes multiple times, adding to a tongue-in-cheek humorous take on that terrific novel, "The Hound of the Baskervilles".

Also so thankful to my host ET, who not only put me up in her home, but the "Baskerville" experience was a birthday gift to me! ❤️
Let's Hop!
