LETTER FROM THE CEO
LETTER FROM THE CEO
Sweet Home
Like the rest of the worLd, i was gLued to the TV after the death of Queen Elizabeth II. When the news broke, my phone started ringing, and text after text arrived from acquaintances and friends with both condolences and comments on the beauty of my Scottish homeland, its countryside, villages, streets, buildings, and yes, castles! ■ The queen had six homes in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The one we hear about most is the grand 775-room Buckingham Palace, which she privately viewed as living above the shop. Two are in Scotland: the official residence at Holyrood palace in Edinburgh and Balmoral Castle, which had been passed down through the family from Queen Victoria. ■ Balmoral was the smallest, and her favorite. She grew up there. Happiest in a headscarf, tweeds, and Wellies, she walked her dogs, rode her horses, and enjoyed the outdoors, driving herself around its beautiful 50,000 acres. ■ No matter how many homes we might have, there is one where we feel most at peace. I am reminded of “Dulce Domum,” chapter five of British author Kenneth Grahame’s classic novel The Wind in the Willows, a story about a group of animal friends living along the banks of a river. “Sweet home” in Latin, the chapter ends when one of the characters, Mole, returns to his old home. “It was good to think he had this to come back to,” Grahame writes. “This place, which was all his own, these things which were so glad to see him again and could always be counted upon for the same simple welcome.” ■ Balmoral could always be counted on to give that same simple welcome to our Queen.
Home Is Where The Heart Is
