Dear Melanie, Hi. Hope all is well with you and thanks for the interesting mail you've

sent in the last while. I've been busy in the garden wherever I can, getting it slowly

in shape. We've had some really nice weather lately. I'm still getting harassed from

time to time by someone trying to break in here, but I think we've come up with a solution

if it doesn't cost too much. Gord is going to wire in a sense of forming, so hopefully

we'll know when someone enters the backyard, and we can quietly call the police while he's

busy doing his thing. I'm really hopeful we might actually catch him soon. Wouldn't

that be wonderful? I could actually start living a normal life again. I've almost forgotten

what that feels like. The police have been pretty useless, so it would be wonderful to

hand him over on a silver platter. Well, I must bathe and get ready for Marion to pick

me up. Hope to hear from you soon. Love Cindy.
