Lovely! :) :) :)


Mailed and posted

Cea: This is one charming tale. You sure have a way with words. I really like the style, but mostly I love the outcome. BTW: the show was IN Hampton, but I am not OF Hampton. Even so, I really appreciate your kind words. (Blush blush!) Let's get together soon. Just don't look for my number in the Hampton phone list! ;) Hugs, PAT in VA/USA not far from Hampton

Cea, this is a marvelous story! I love the way you told it and can't wait for the next one. :)
