Auntie O,

I take it that I should be on the lookout for something?

Oh I thought we were passing hugs and warm smiles around

I just wanted to pass one onto you

And you got me wondering. mede in old English - I think - means meadow
and as Runnymede runs north/south makes me thank at one time there must
have been a long meadow that run down to the lake. it brings up images of
children and deer and bunnies out in an area that just a couple hundred
years ago would mainly have been new, wooded land. Our country is still
so new.

Hi

I'm in Berkshire UK. In Surrey there is a place called Runnymede, where the
Magna Carta was signed in 1215. It's quite a historic site. There's more
info here if you're interested!

This is so interesting. I just did a search for Runnymede
Toronto history and came up with this site first on the list.

diverse

I'm in the US, in Pennsylvania.

believe that I still have the pattern around, just have to go
looking for it.

I don't remember anything in the Bible that says anything like that.

Some people think it comes under the prohibition against worshipping
idols.

That is what I had to explain to my class the other day.

But I can't post it here!
OK, I will put it in my album, and then post the URL later. g

Hugs,

Hi Els, when I moved to Toronto after graduation form high school I lived on
Chester at Danforth! Small world, eh?
Gee Norma

It's a very small world because I lived at Donland's and O'Connor
before I was married.

Yes Darlene, we did talk about that. I used to go the the East end
recreation center a lot, and cycled to my friends house who lived in
Leaside. It is indeed a very small world

Yes you should, it came all the way from Isreal, passed by Meredith Road,
and went on its way to Ophelia. Some of the items stay and some of the
items travel on, new ones get added and new letters enclosed.

Enjoy
