    Happy New Year to you too!

    Is Tata anywhere near Szombathely? I used to work with a man who was born and raised there, but came to the U.S. in the 50s. He told me many stories about his boyhood, and gave me some of the most gorgeous emboidered items that were made there. He used to go back and visit his family every few years, but they're all gone now. I still see him occasionally.

    Tata is near to Szombathely(cca.120 km)! See the link from Hungary:

    Tata(my city) is a small and beautiful city between Szombathely and Budapest.
