I am waiting for it to clear so I can go out & trim up a few branches on the forsythia bush that is hanging over the driveway. so they wont root in. every place needs a man to do the outside work. my place is surrounded with these bushes they stay in bloom a longtime. I did read the white Oak where they crossed the ocean & came to America. guess I have read most of them they were very good. The letter you sent from Robert Beal I did not read much of it. he done form his letters so gave it up as a bad job. I never knew him he was one of the younger ones but come of a good family Greeks bought the Beals house
