Bright sunshine today

Looking through some old photos and ran across when we were visiting at son Cam & family in Marengo a year ago after being in southeast Missouri during niece Jen's death and memorial service.





Veggie Man Joe's stand at DonWes

With good weather today worked in Texas room some - got some blue-gray painted on some of the uprights to see what it looks like.  Still working on the trim around the windows and the sill which I am extending to make a shelf all along the west side of the room.


GROANER’S CORNER:((   According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid-December.  Female reindeer retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring. Therefore, according to EVERY historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, EVERY single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen, had to be a girl.  We should have known... ONLY women would be able to drag a fat man in a red velvet suit all around the world in one night and not get lost.

- Dear Christmas Carolers, the only thing that can bring "Joy To The World" is a "Silent Night".
- Santa Claus has the right idea. Visit people once a year.
What I don't like about office Christmas parties is looking for a new job the next day.

Whos there?
Mary and Abby!
Mary and Abby who?
Mary Christmas and a Abby New Year.
