I have to show you what's around our building. This is January, for goodness sake, what's in your front yard?
This is by the temple. Aren't they beautiful? We get a hard frost over night but when the sun comes out these flowers perk right up and are so beautiful. Needless to say, they are a hearty variety.
For the past two Sundays, we have been going to a town called Haywards Heath to go to church. We have to spread out, so all the missionaries aren't overwhelming one ward. Anyway, on the way to Haywards Heath we passed so many really old homes, that we finally had to stop and take some pictures. This home is from 1670. Can you even believe!!
I hate to keep saying it - but "You wouldn't believe it!" - this house was built in 1390! And it's right on the road on the way to Haywards Heath. Now, I know that you aren't going to just take my word for it, so double click and look at the date on the front of the building. We were told about this house before we passed it. Notice the thatched roof. Of course, I'm sure that's not original.
Malling Priory 1730
Toll House 1630 - they used to have a gate across the road and charged a toll to get into the town of Lindfield. The gate was taken down in 1875.
Haywards Heath Ward is on Slugwash Lane. It's such a unique name that I had to get a picture of that. Now we will be going to church in Eastbourne - about two hours from the temple. Oh, well, everyone has to take their turn on the far away ones.
