Happy Sunday and Merry Christmas All...

It’s a Christmas show which frankly could be better, but why expect DC libs to get it right...Christmas Sing With Bing...Mysterious Traveler...ending with Casey Crime Photographer is kinda lame. No It’s a Wonderful Life? No Duffy’s Travel Christmas show. Ok.

How are you?

[WXRGina]

Merry Christmas, Vision! I like the pretty wreath. :-) We missed you last week. How’s it going?

[Vision]

I’m off till the new year and bought a second car (used) yesterday. It’s insane trying to buy a used car now. About to take some Peruvian chicken off hanging over charcoal. Life is good. You?

[WXRGina]

Cool! You’re set! We’re fine. I just baked a batch of my “world famous” chocolate chip pecan cookies today (for gifts), and Keith made a batch of his excellent chili.

Evening and Merry Christmas, folks.

Hi, Viking! Merry Christmas! :-D

[Vision]

Love it.
