Sita-pati had some kind words to say about us after his visit last week. He came for Gopala Guru and Krsna Murari's wedding. He only saw the good. He didn't mention the cold shower in the guest bathroom. The pilot light gets blown out by the strong winds coming in from the west. He took it in his stride and managed to gain some inspiration from the way we do things here. Thanks Sita-pati prabhu.
