Tony, that place sounds also very much like our beautiul New Zealand.
We live on a hill, and have a river flowing through our farm, crystal clear, we have horses to mount and ride and explore the hills and forest ,
and be in awe of God's creation.
Yes this life indeed is a shadow of things to come.
Please take some pictures of that lovely valley again, and of the horses.

To all my brothers and sisters out there, things are hotting up and we are getting closer and closer each day.

here a picture inserted of our crystal clear river. It flows at some places and at other places there are pools where you can swim in. Maranatha, Marianna.
