This is on an island off Sweden, a place called Gotland, rich in farms, forests, and meadows. This storybook setting is home to a very close friend. The life in this enchanted garden was full of every good thing one could grow. They had apples, pears, apricots, peaches, plums, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, and gooseberries, honey bees, gardens, eggs & cream, everything in a pleasant dream. No wonder the Swedes look so healthy, they live in a land of milk and honey. This warm colored October setting has a feeling of apple cider and cinnamon.
