Dear Patrick

The first lines are introductory.

An example might be, when my great uncle died, the family
returned to his home for refreshments. My cousin and I
had not been to the house since we were children.

In my mind and his, the house was twice the size as
well as the horse pastures and drive. So the "perfect
image" was perfected by our minds and the images
were no where near reality.
