That is a nice dark one, tell me is your climate a temperate one or does it get very hot and very cold ,the reason I ask is that the pictures you show suggest something similar to the UK where as I thought you would be very hot in summer.

Thank you both:)
Brian, the climate here is much like yours-maybe a bit warmer, but not much. The seasons here get very hot and very cold, but I like it:)
