You are not only a delightful guide, but brave as three bears to boot…

Thank you for climbing that tower’s ladders, one rung at a time. And for taking along your camera. I am sure that my hands would have been too shaky to get the wonderful photos that you have shared with your readers.

Somehow, I had never before thought about shrapnel being inbedded in stone, although I certainly should have done. The views within the tower, including those carvings, were magnificent. The view from the tower’s top … well, again I thank you.

Best wishes.
