JohnIt was great to see you in the airport. What a coincidence – just days before we headed to Europe with the honor and responsibility to place three Sam Stones.
I wanted to write to thank you for the experience. It was quite emotional for our family – me in particular.
Dan and Cori placed the first two. One in a tree in the Mirabelle gardens in Salzburg – a beautiful city. The second in the gardens of the Hohenschwangeau (sp?) castle – boyhood home of King Ludwig who built the Disney inspiring castle he never lived in.
The third inspired this note. I placed it at the base of the Staubach falls in the Lauterbrunnen valley in Switzerland – a remarkably stunning place. We have had less than optimal weather – completely clouded over blocking all views of the Alps three highest peaks. I was feeling a bit down but this placed it all in perspective for me. It simply did not matter – I was with my family.
Thank you,
Bill, Cori, Dan and Seldon
