October 5, 2012Dear Sir,Every so often I write to first and forever thank all of Bermuda for being a special and enduringly great place!We have been visitors for a long time. Bermuda is indeed a special place; we miss the music on arrival!From touchdown to departure Bermuda is a second home. From the welcome at the airport to the great taxi drivers, who with or without GPS do an awesome job in making us feel at home.To the first stop at the Modern Mart where we get our things and are greeted by your wonderful children at checkout who some day will run a company, we love this special place.And on to The Reefs where the Dodwell family have created and nourished a culture of competence, contribution and equality. An awesome place where we not only feel "perfectly at ease" but "perfectly at home"And mention must be made of the stern but ever lovely hostess at the Hog Penny who taught us long ago about a proper "booking" during the week.And to the management of Calypso whose two chairs at the entrance were made for husbands from everywhere!Bermuda ... you are exceptional ... And to each and everyone who calls this rock a home please accept the deepest and most sincere gratitude from my family as we look forward to another arrival this December.We mark our days in anticipation of arriving and being simple guests in the home you call Bermuda.Bermuda … SIMPLY THE BEST!THE LONG FAMILYDerwood, Maryland
