When we were up there visiting you, we felt this would be a good idea, glad others felt the same. We didn?t wish to bring it up, or even ask the question, but we are truly glad it has all worked out. We think you ought to do a book of photos where you live, of the people, the comrades, and the care givers, after all, it is all about access and you have that. We thought we would bring it up, not the first, nor the last, we bet. Keep well ole buddy, and keep on plugging, your friends, tara and steve On Sep 4, 2017, at 9:34 AM, Ted Grant <tedgrant at shaw.ca> wrote: > > Hi dear friends, > WELL ??
