A good day, thanks very much! We've been in the high 40's - low 50's all day with light rain.

To tell the truth, I overdid it today - I'm exhausted! We went to Mass this morning, where I walked up and down the length of the Nave twice, and this afternoon we ventured forth to buy the Christmas Tree. A good looking 7 ft. Frazer Fir - a little on the wide side for a Frazer, but less obese than trees we have bought in the past.

Afterwards, I went to Home Depot to buy some carriage bolts and nuts to secure the tree to our stage - walked all over the store.

My youngest son, John Man, bolted the stand to our stage and installed the tree - not an easy thing to do. Kudos to him! I have dome it for many rears and it's a tedious process making sure the tree is not leaning while tightening the screws in the stand. We'll have to wait for tomorrow to put the lights and ornaments on - the tree is still wet and I like to let them drop for a day before rigging the lights.

This is a link to a Youtube on the Berlin Airlift and the Candy Bomber - well worth a look in my opinion - it buffered a little in the middle on my computer.

You have had a BUSY day. Don’t overdo it. No relapses.

Sounds like a good tree trip.

Congratulations, John Man...Good Job!!

Have fun “dressing” the tree tomorrow.

One of the light strings I have up refuses to stay lit. I need to replace it.
