Dear Pharmboy,
What a wonderful Christmas gift to us from you and your wife! I don’t forget her encouragement. Thank you for your research and hard work in bringing this special and long-ago Christmas to life!
This was a delectable historical feast, bringing the Father of our Country, and the Patriots who served under him and bade him farewell, into high relief. I almost felt as if I were in that 2nd-floor room at the tavern, on horseback riding along the snowy roads, on the bumpy passages in the boats, and watching George Washington rush into his home; finally to embrace his loving family, a truly free man at long last! What a Christmas that must have been! Thank you for bringing great portions of it to us, and of the rest, we can dream.
And wishing you, your wife, and our fellow FReepers the same: a warm and wonderful Christmas with grateful hearts, thankful in the knowledge that once, great giants like George Washington — by the power, grace and mercy of God — walked the earth of our fledgling nation.
May the Lord bless you, and may He bless and grant unto the brave and the true among us, the power through His grace to save the United States of America.
Blessings to you and yours,
Your Obdt. & Humble Svt.,
