        Mason says he is not ready to move on from his mourning of the
death of Rebekah, and Dixon suggests that maybe it would help if Mason
told Dixon about her.

        Chapter 16 begins on page 167 with a four page flashback to the
day Mason met Rebekah.  Mason was in the small town of Randwick to
attend the annual cheese-rolling event.  Cheeses were rolled to the
church and blessed by the priest. Mason wanted to see a giant cheese
known as the Octuple Gloucester, measuring nearly ten feet high and
weighing four tons when green.

        The cheese is too big to be rolled so the owners found a large
"Cotswold waggon" (Cotswolds are a group of hills in central England) to
transport it to the church. Local youths spring aboard the waggon as it
moved toward the church, steadying the cargo during rough passages. They
sing a song to the cheese.
