[Ansteorra] Re: [Ansteorra-announce] Our Kingdom's Gate

[letebts at earthlink.net]

Amen, and a wildly seconded motion to H. E. Pendaran's plaudits for our
illustrious Baron (and Harbormaster)! Ditto for our Baroness, who stands
tall in her abilities and enthusiasm and help for her husband, family, and
Ansteorra. And, inclusive, the hard workers on the Gate of Ansteorra.
VIVAT!!

Lete, who will be holding a new grandson in Loch Salann, Artemisia (Utah)
whilst others are mightily defending Ansteorran honor at Gulf War XII
