Much the same as yours Mega. I feel the joy of arrival and the depression setting in when I leave. I used to always go alone to Avebury so that I wasn't distracted but at 64 I like company these days as I feel more confident in talking about it and having an opinion at long last. I spent so long visiting here and there like it was a race to get them all in that it dawned on me one day that I was seeing a lot but learning precious little else. I want to go out of this world knowing a lot more about Avebury than what I read in books that are all just other peoples ideas.
