We have just returned from our holiday．We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors．This is a beautiful place．It is a natural park．There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with no people, just sheep and birds．
Edward, who had just come out of hospital, could not walk as far as he used to．However, this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a cafe for lunch each day, before returning to the place we live．Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk．Very pleasant!
I have taken lots of photos from the place we live, across the valley(峡谷)below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist(雾气)in the valley．Also, in England, the old steam powered trains(蒸汽火车)are very popular．I have taken many photos of the train and from it．
Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter．It is very early(we usually expect snow in January)．It rained all day, then snowed in the evening．Today we have bright sunshine!
Both Jenny and I are well．I don’t know if I told you, in the last e-mail, that Jenny is now working in a hotel．Although she has to work hard, people there are nice and she is enjoying the work．
Please write to us to tell us your news．
Yours,
Victor

About a year ago, a couple with 3 children moved into the apartment next door to me．I never heard any noise from the children, but the parents were always 1 them, in a frightening way．We met often in the hallway when we were coming or going．I always spoke, but the only answer I ever got was a hello from the 4-year-old girl．
I usually go out for breakfast and one day when I returned they were just coming from their apartment and the little girl was holding the door open for the others．I remained in the car doing unnecessary things 2 I wasn't in a hurry．The parents were telling her to get in the car immediately．I looked up and saw the little girl was still holding the door open, waiting for me．
As a handicapped(有残疾的)man, I can't hurry at anything, but I hurried as much as I could and thanked her．She was smiling like a lovely angel．I was so touched but her small act of kindness．That afternoon I was shopping at the K-mart and I saw a white bear．I thought of the 3 and said to myself．“I believe she would like that” so I bought it．
The next day there was a knock on the door and it was the little girl and her father．She was so proud of her bear and thanked me like I had never been thanked before．The mother and father both thanked me．
Now when we meet in the hall we all speak, and in a friendly manner I might add．As time passes, I don't hear that shouting as often． 4 , hardly at all．
Last night we had about four inches of snow．I looked out at my car and wondered how I was going to keep my doctor's appointment．
When I opened the outside door, there was my car with all the snow cleaned．I can't express how I felt at that moment．The man next door was the only person I knew in the whole building, so when I saw him the next day．I asked him if he was the good man that cleaned my snow．He said 5 ．He wanted to but his wife said she wanted to do it．
Isn't it amazing how a 4-year-old girl can change so many things for the better? My guardian angel(守护天使)says that good things usually come from 6 ．
