The Thursday Threesome...

Onesome: I'm dreaming of a white Christmas- Are you hoping for a white Christmas this year, or are you somewhere you seldom see snow? No snow here in the central valley of California. Well, once in 1968, we had some that hung around for a few hours. ...but each year we try to visit the mountains for some snow fun; it's only about an hour away. Nope, I'm just wishing for one that's not greyed out from the fog!

Twosome: With every Christmas card I write- Have you begun the cards? Do you write a personal note in each one, or just sign a generic greeting and your name? Or maybe print out the ol' yearly form letter to let everyone know what's new for you? Shelley generally handles the card tricks here, getting that 'just right' picture of the boys to send out. I don't really get into cards...

Threesome: May your days be merry and bright- What do you do for the holidays to ensure they'll be merry? I may sound like a broken record (<snort!>), but the music keeps my spirits up. That and some walks in the neighborhood to see what people have up for decorations.

How about you? How do you start off your Christmas season? Drop by and let us know, over on The Back Porch...

Come on over and chat!

I was going for a cloud shot...

...and the sun dropped below the cloud deck just as I fired.

The warp nexus is open...

Okay, for a special effect...

Shelley's houseguest...

Yep, almost three feet tall!

More of what passes for the insanity of Christmas here as the week progresses...
