Feliz Navidad!
We woke up yesterday morning missing home, family and friends. (And yes, I know "home" has been experiencing lots of snow, high winds and terrible driving conditions.) We talked throughout the day about how we felt something was missing. We also talked about it with others here in the park - people from Nova Scotia, Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana and Minnesota. Everyone agreed the snow brings an ambience to the season and, of course, everyone recalled memories of Christmases past with our families and friends. It was almost the sole topic of conversation at the Xmas Eve bonfire we attended last night.
And this morning when we woke up to Christmas in Texas, we felt the same. We felt sad we were missing 2 sons, a daughter and daughter-in-law, 2 grandkids, 3 nephews and their wives and kids, a niece, a sister and her beau, and so many close friends in Kingston, from Orillia, Ottawa, Russell, Manotick, PEI and many other places. We opened our presents, had our Christmas breakfast together quietly and it was only 9:00 am.
And then we went outside and it was 80 degrees! and suddenly, we didn't feel so bad (lol)... it's 85 degrees now so I'd say we're over it completely! We checked this aft with those in the park from Nova Scotia, Michigan, Indiana and Minnesota and, you know what? Amazingly, they're over it too!
As a matta of fact, we hope y'all's en-joying your Christmas wherever you are hitched up for the Day and trust Ol' Santa brought y'all somtin gooood... Hope y'all's eatin' turkey and chowin' down those taters, yams and dee-sserts like pee-can pye! We'll check back witcha in a few days - in the mean time, Merry Christmas to y'all and to y'all a Good Night! Yessir... Feliz Navidad!
