    Son returns bearing gifts

    My son, Tom, got back from his semester abroad in the UK today. Absolutely great to see him after ten weeks.

    He was kind enough to have extended my thanks to the gang at his adopted local pub in London for looking out for him while he was there.

    And he brought me a book..."Tartans of the Clans and Families of Scotland"...a 1952 printing so it's as old as I am! Thanks, son.

    Best

    Glad to hear that Tom will be back with the family for the holidays, and with so many new experiences in his look. My regards to the whole family!

    There are few things in Life on a par with a child returning home!
