Merry Christmas, 2006

Christmas Eve at our house; BC and Terry are helping me knit Socks for Soldiers.


Looks like Santa brought Werner Player paddles for David and me. They are, of course, the correct color!

Christmas Day here on the Cumberland Plateau is cloudy, rainy, a bit cool. So I'll take you instead back to Costa Rica.




Sunset from my cabana motel near the Arenal Volcano.










There's a volcano in these clouds, honest. But this is what it looked like MOST of the time.


But I got lucky and saw this view, too. And that's not all clouds at the top - some of that is being vented from the volcano. If I used my binoculars, I could see the fiery rocks bouncing down the slope. And one could hear it, too. Very impressive.




I hope everyone is enjoying your holiday in the way that most suits you. I wish you a happy holiday and a peaceful new year!
