Dear Folks,

I think I've finally come up with a name for my home.  What with all the
rain and flooding, I definately have decided I live in a swamp (see the
froggies?)  Anyway, I've come up with several ideas and would like to run
them past people and get their opinion.

Swamp Manor-the simplicity freak in me likes this one...short, to the point
and easy for everyone.

La Maison de Marais-French-Annes would have probably spoken some form of
French or maybe German-Das Haus das Moor.

Italian-Annes has many Italian friends who might want to call it this (Hi
Alisstassia & Carluccio!)-La Casa de Palude.

Spanish-Annes has many Spanish friends and after all this *is* Texas-La Casa
el Pantano.

I couldn't find a Gaelic translation for "Swamp Manor"...maybe Caitlin or
Iaen might like to check this for me.

What do you think?

Annes
Dear God,  Help me to be the person
my dog thinks I am.  Amen
