A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day....12-23, 24, 25, 26-05....Home for the Holidays
Mama_Bear

Posted on 12/23/2005 12:04:48 AM PST by Mama_Bear



Oh, there's no place like
home for the holidays
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
When you pine for the sunshine
Of a friendly face
For the holidays, you can't beat
Home, sweet home

I met a man who lives in Tennessee
And he was headin' for Pennsylvania
And some home made pumpkin pie
From Pennsylvania folks a travelin' down
To Dixie's sunny shore
From Atlantic to Pacific, gee
The traffic is terrific

Oh there's no place like home
For the holidays, 'cause no matter
How far away you roam
If you want to be happy in a million ways
For the holidays, you can't beat
Home, sweet home.

,,, yes, the water's that blue. It's about 6,20pm now on Christnas Eve and we're sweating it out. A bit of a breeze but not enough to cool things down. We've got the Christmas Eve service at 7pm and it's going to be so hot in Church. Send us some snow!

I would if I had any to send. Hardly ever snows where I live. It does further east in the mountains, but I live on the Ohio River just where the weather patterns almost meet, but rarely do. Pretty mild weather most of the time. Once in awhile one of the Alberta Clippers will slide down a bit further South and catch us. We haven't had a measureable snow in 10 years. I keep thinking we're about due. So far, nothing. Rain predicted for Christmas day. Temp was 50F today.

Just noticed you are in here all by yourself so thought I would stop by and say good night. I have lots of pings on the thread to answer, but it looks like most everyone is gone for the night, so I will do it tomorrow.

Good night, wolfie. *smooooooooch*

,,, my mother-in-law was born in Birmingham, UK but was raised in Ohio. She ended up living here in New Zealand. Next time I'm in the US I'll check Ohio, Nebraska, the Dakotas and a lot of the south out - but not in winter :)

Okie dokie. I'll send snow if you send some warm sunshine our way. We can sure use it about now.

Have a wonderful Christmas!

It is enough, to be sure, and it needs to cover the next couple, just in case he's somewhere else for those-this is where the sights, and smells, and memories become ever-more important.
