Default Have a Holly Jolly Christmas

In this seemingly endless and vitriolic political season, we are once again in the traditional Christmas season -- with its overly commercialization warts and all. I for one am grateful that so far, extending Christian well wishes to friends, co-workers and strangers alike is not yet the "hate crime" that some would make it if they could.

So once again I'm not sending a long "Christmas Letter" type diatribe about where we went (nowhere special) and what we did (not Earth shattering). However, I can certainly say that God is good and there is no eraser on His pencil. Therefore nothing passes into our lives without His permission! That said, my Christmas Card for you this year is what I believe to be is a lighthearted delivery of one of the greatest pieces of Christmas music ever written. If you haven't seen this done before, you are in for a treat. Even if you have, it is worth the several minutes of your time to enjoy it again. I came across it on YouTube.com and wanted to share it with you. I hope you enjoy it as much as my wife and I did!!

Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year:


This will be my last post inasmuch as I bought my next trike project on Monday. It's a Honda CTX700 with a 6 speed. Should be a fun project, but who knows, I might live long enough to do yet another later on. And HD is always a favorite! So long everyone...............

Very nice day here in the mountain state. Came home form work and cleaned up to cruse around town on the bike a bit on Christmas eve. Stopped by a local all you can eat Chinese place and when I started to leave someone ahead of me paid my bill...
Can't get any better than that. Merry Christmas everyone.

Happy Christmas, all!

It's +13 deg today, but some drizzle forecast for later. Not that I care, because I'll be starting on the prosecco soon!
