OT Re: [Sca-cooks] Stonehenge access

[Sue Clemenger]

Certainly, one can get in.  I picked up the info for it when I was 
there.  But it's definitely not as casually-accessible as Newgrange, 
which is pretty well protected itself, being a world-wide cultural 
treasure (I forget the exact title).  I was able to go inside Newgrange 
because I was part of a tour--the folks that run the park (or whatever 
the site actually is) very carefully control access and time allowed in 
the site itself.  One of my "it'll never happen" dreams would be to be 
able to go back on Winter Solstice, but there's like a 10-year waiting 
list.  *sigh*
That said, there's something absolutely mind-blowing about being able to 
touch something *that OLD*, isn't there?
