Thank you Chuck for feeding the horses. Yesterday when it was 27 below I was thinking about you. I knew you had to break the ice in the stream for them and I hope the pin in your knee didn't hurt too badly.
For Valentine's Day, I promise to cook your favorite steak dinner which we will eat in front of the fire with a glass of wine. You are wonderful!
Love, Joan

Dave the Dog and other friends and ,
Postcard to Dave the Dog and other friends and family in St. Paul:

Enjoying living in Ireland but missing Summit Beer and Summit Avenue.
People say it's easy to get lost here, but we haven't found it hard to find our way around, as the streets are similar to St. Paul's... were they layed out by the Irish too?

We asked Mr. Keilor if we could hitch a ride home in his suitcase but there wasn't room with all the Guiness he's taking back with him, sorry.

Dave, just because we moved to Ireland without you doesn't mean you can eat Gretchen's plants!
- Bill and Joanie

You are a pearl of a woman. Please don't
