   How lovely to have met the Queen. Her face does show kindness, caring, and a peaceful heart.

   Anyone else here remember watching Elizabeth’s coronation on TV? Film of the entire ceremony was flown as quickly as possible across the Atlantic for broadcast in the U.S. I recall sitting on the couch beside my mother, and being a little kid thinking how long it all was.
   One of the things that’s always struck me about QE II is that her dogs and horses never know she was queen — just their pet human — and they seemed to love her for herself and her kindness to them.

   I always enjoy your blog and today was no exception. Love the story and the first two things that jumped in my head about the wire contraption were a stocking holder to dry stockings or a tomato stake! Craziness resides here! Thank you for your always unique and thought-provoking stories. Love seeing the grandchildren!
