Meeting Matthew

I approached this man - Matthew Cuthbert - and introduced myself,  I was so nervous and when I get nervous I do talk.  I get in trouble all the time.  But there was silence and so I starting telling about the cherry tree across the paddock I had decided to sleep in if no one arrived.  I talked and talked until I had to stop and draw breath.

We drove through some gorgeous lane ways and tree lined avenues but when I questioned Mr Cuthbert he didn't seem to be able to answer my questions.  "What tree is that", "What makes the road red?" and thousands more.  I don't understand why you wouldn't find out the answers to these questions if you lived in such a glorious place.

I thought I would be so happy here until Matthew mentioned the colour of my hair.  I wish I could say it was a glorious black or a pure gold but no my hair is red.  Who could be happy with red hair?
