Early Merry Xmas

Not Happy Holidays

I want to extend to all ( and I mean ALL (not just my arguing buds) a
very MERRY XMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR. I may be off for a few days and
do not know what my connectivity will be. My daughter and son had a
tragic death with one of their friends - 21st birthday - 21 shots, we
must travel to attend the wake - but I am also experiencing the 1st XMAS
of two grandchildren ( 3 months, 1 1/2 months)so while one family
suffers a tragic loss- I celebrate the holidays with two more additions)


Hope all is well with everyone!

Merry Christmas Joe!

Sorry to hear of the tragedy, that kind of loss always sucks.

May the blessings of the Christmas season find you, yours and your
grandchildren fat, happy and full.

Dig the babies, I got to meet my 1st grandson last Christmas, and little
ones are what Christmas is all about.

I don't get that option. We feed breakfast to anywhere from 30 to 50
friends every Christmas morning.

He sits in the corner of old beggar's bush
On top of an old packing crate
he has three wooden dolls that can dance and can sing
And he croons with a smile on his face

Chorus

Come day, go day
Wish in my heart it were Sunday
Drinking buttermilk thru the week
Whiskey on a Sunday

(cont.)...

Merry Chrismas to all.
Will be feasting in Berlin at my brother's, with Chris, Ma,
Pa, and my lovely sister in law. Some new life will be
around, too, though still kind of undercover.

Then I hope your Christmas is especially merry this year. All the best
to her, Curtis, and to you and the rest of the family.

While quite a few boat club members are included, this is not a boat club
thing. It started long before we joined the club. We've been doing them
almost as long as we've been together. Years ago, we realized that several
of our friends had no local family. We could not imagine spending Christmas
morning alone and didn't want our friend to have to experience it. So we
started inviting them to our home for breakfast, first a few, then a few
more. The event is not obligatory. People get invited because they are
welcome. If they have other things to do, they are encouraged to do them.
This is for those who don't have family to spend the time with. who enjoy
spending the time with us and who we enjoy spending time with. Eventually,
the event built to the 50 or so we had over a few years ago. The food has
never been a problem. With a little planning it's as easy to cook for 50 as
it is for a dozen. The problem is space. You need space to eat, even if
you eat while standing. Over the last few years, we've let attrition reduce
the number back to a more manageable 30 or so. Now that I doubled the size
of the roof over the patio, we can handle a more. The list is, growing
again and, if we keep on doing this, will stabilize at some number that is
workable.
