One lives in Indianapolis and Atlanta; one in the Keys, Florida; and one in Juneau, Alaska! We had a wonderful time reminiscing, celebrating, and talking about Christmas too. Today we are driving up north to the cool pines and treating ourselves to ice cream at every stop!
What a joy life can be at the most unexpected times!! :snowjump: :snowball: :penny:


wow, what a nice Christmas surprise!

We went to a lot of different stores this past weekend and every one of them had Christmas items on display. Our Walmart had over 200 bikes in the outdoor department ready to go.

That is great news about Perky's spinal tap. A little memory of Christmas is always a good thing too. :D
