John O'Sullivan and his lovely wife Carmel. I met John on the net at the Irish Ancestral Pages and we became friends, albeit long distance. A likeable sort John lives in Waterford, Ireland and drives truck for his living. When I get over there, a stop to see these good folks will be at the top of my list.

My friend Nicola and her oldest daughter Miriam whom she calls her "little rock star" are pictured above. Nicola teaches music and works on her farm in Arenborn, Germany.

Nicola is pictured here with her lovely family, "hubby" Ludwig and their youngest daughter Jovana. Nicola says she and Ludwig are relics from the '70's the last of the flower people. They live in a very scenic part of Germany where Ludwig farms gathering seeds of various vegetables for market. Ludwig's seeds are ecologically grown and many are rare hard to find varieties. They have two fine horses,Vinjar and Hedan, who do what they can to help the vegetables grow :o).
