The sunlight hit the television. \n\nThe picture was almost invisible. \"I have no vision of the picture,\" said Brad.\n\nGwen held up a big pillow to block the light. It did not work. \n\nThen she went to the window. Gwen pulled the dark shade down.\n\nThe room was dim and cool. Now the show was very visible. \n\nBrad grinned at Gwen. It was a wonderful visit!",
