[Guest guest]

Hiiiiiiiiii -

This is so nice of you to write. I wanted to write myself,

to let you know I have been listening to the CD you sent

of ish Bag Pipes. I still love it and listen as if I have

just received it. Even loaned it to someone

works with as he seems to have a fondness for bag

pipes. Thank you for sharing in our joy in wishing us

a happy anniversary. It does seem that CONGRATULATIONS are in order for you

as well.

A May wedding, how special and beautiful it will be.

Please let us know closer to the date as to how you

are doing.

Sending our love back your way for you and your

family-
