Neil, your tour was delightful from beginning to end;
Enjoyed trees and plants around every bend.
The waterfalls and streams were peaceful as well;
Seems a perfect place to sit, and rest a spell.
*** Thanks, Neil! ***

It has been raining on and off. They say it is going to be wet in the morning and then sunny. Sunday is going to be nice as well!

Dear Muriel, I am proud of you and Peter for getting your early Christmas present working.
It is a wonderful and secret place, yet it is not far from where you used to live!
Yes it it is most peaceful, and to me a beautiful place!
It is freezing here, what is like further north in Lincoln?
Love.
Neil & Sarah.

Hi Neil,
The weather here, is daft, cannot make up it's mind what it wants to do, being cold, rainny, sunny all in a short time, though it is lovely to see flowers in bloom in the back garden.
