Anna Schaetzke brought in a piece of pottery with a symbol that looked to be very old and possible Celtic. It was a souvenir from a trip she took and reminded her of the Castle of Tintagel on the west coast of Cornwall, England. This is what she wrote.
King Arthur...Merlin....As I looked out on the vast Atlantic Ocean and the surf pounding against the rocks 500 feet below this is what came to my mind. From the ruins of this magnificent castle one's imagination could easily travel back to earlier days when ladies in courtly dresses waited for the sound of hoof beats that signaled the return of the knights from their field of battle.
Likewise, I could picture pitch-black evenings with the rain and howling winds of the sea battering the walls. Tintagel has a magic and mystery all its own.
