It does say it all doesn't it? I found a passage in "The Remains of the Day" a couple of weeks ago that describes the English countryside so beautifully and sent it to Hannah. I'll have to use it at Musings soon. Don’t you love that video? It does say it all doesn’t it?

What a view! I spent 18 months in similar English and Roman castles on most p days during my mission. It was amazing to see the architectural differences, but nearly all had the small round steps on the spiral stair cases, from what I remember anyway.

My daughter is getting married and I want to send you an invitation. Hope all is well in England! Karen Mona,

What you say here is so true -- selecting a marriage partner should be a matter of "lining up" your blueprints, but also being open to another person "improving" yours! Excellent!

I remember thinking it shouldn’t be too hard to find someone who had the same castle in mind. In one fashion or another, blueprints would be unveiled and wouldn’t line up as well as I hoped. What a SHOCK when I found someone who not only had similar plans, but found great ways to improve mine. SO FUN to sit down and plan a castle (a MARRIAGE), to get in the nitty gritty details with one another and watch how they work! I LOVE to build with my sweetheart! This was so beautiful!

Don't hold back the tears, kisses, and everything else! Keep him coming home to build your castle.

I loved it. I have always been fascinated by the old castles...and to think that I am building one right here, one stone at a time, my marriage, what a great image. I can't wait to see the view as we grow in our marriage. (Grown children, Grandchildren, Missions, who knows the beauties that will be built) I stopped reading your posts when you moved...silly me. You are such a wise women and I love your inspiration and your thoughts. I will be thinking of this one for the rest of the week. My husband comes home from a trip from Switzerland this Thurs. and I will probably feel the same way as I get him from the airport. I miss him dearly...my king in our castle...I just hope I don't cry. Thanks again, Cindy Thank you for this musing. I loved it.
