Not long ago, I received a comment on a poem that I had written last year on Christmas Day. I had forgotten about writing it, but I think that how I felt then applies equally well today. Thanks for bringing so much joy into my life this year. I have enjoyed receiving all of your [...]

Yesterday, I told you that the gentleman, whose daughter I took photos of at the Super Ice rink, had given me directions to an elaborate Nativity display in David.
