"Thanks for the great weekend in your house. It was awesome. All of us getting together from different states was the perfect setting for a peaceful & relaxing weekend. We all had a splendid time playing horseshoes, fishing, fires & just plain sitting & talking. The views are breathtaking. I got some great photos of the view and of course, the eagles. Thanks--we hope to be here again real soon!"
