A very sentimental journey and it is strange how things looked so much bigger when we were children. My husband comes from Kyogle in Australia, which is lush rain forest country and he talks about it often. He says 'you can take the boy out of the country, but you can't take the country out of the boy'. Thank you for a such a happy glance into your youth. Karin Anderson

What an enjoyable, nostalgic look back into the life that each one of us harbor withing our sou.... HOME...... This was penned so beautifully, and I can relate so well... As when my mom passed away, we had to clean out the old house, and the memories were flowing endlessly.... Very gently penned with so much colour of HOME.... Bonnie

The childhood lives memoirs... And the old house on highway - real the past proof.... Which all the same caused the latent melancholy... Which you cannot hide before video-kamer... Beauty, Richard.. 10.... B.W. Tsira
