Pat thank you so much for the Holiday wishes. Going right back for you also and the gorgeous pictures. I LOVE IT!!! Hope you have a wonderful 2010 and that we can share many great moments with our love to brugs, together. Lucy

nope mine is Christmas tree. I was referring to size of her plant. All can't be perfect until they are given a fighting chance. Mine got too much sun so had to be moved. I am sure you can show us all a perfect one though Ken This post was edited by almosthooked on Mon, Dec 24, 12 at 22:36

Christmas Day Ricky Ginsburg - Christmas, any year you'd like Nearly eight thousand miles south of the northern tip of the globe, yet only a few milliseconds flight by sleigh (nine deer-power, greased rails), on an island not much larger than your neighborhood, a content and well-fed deliveryman sat on the trunk of a fallen palm tree and peeled a banana. At the other end of an invisible eight thousand mile-long-string, a black woman with perfectly straightened hair and considerable girth lay naked on a bed of fresh goose feathers and straw, waiting for the driver of said sleigh, just as she'd done for centuries. Only this year, he wasn't coming home. Click to read the rest...

Merry Christmas to you, Islay. Dcarch, enjoy the weather, you know you'll have to come back sometime, LOL. Here it's 11F, but the winds are down to 15 MPH, so not all that bad. If it gets up to 20F, the salt they put on the roads will be able to melt the ice, and then driving won't be quite as treacherous. All in all, my part of the world got a storm, but not quite as bad as the weather forecasters were predicting. Annie
