Dear Margaret,

Funny incident -- the water box in the toilet kept running. With my passion for saving water, I climbed up and removed the lid to fix it. There was a big bull frog sitting on the ball. I promptly let the lid down, and after a while the water stopped. I can't figure how he ever got in, and for all I know he may still be there.

Much love,

Herb
