Or whatever aspect of this time of year brings you and yours joy. And maybe gifts. But at least mid-winter calm and promise and perspective. I wish it all for you.
This is the first year we're celebrating in our home state of Colorado since I moved out here 24 years ago. With Margie's folks, and now my mom, in Colorado, it made more sense to hold the celebration here — thus leading to a whole new set of traditions being started.
And James is home from school, and my brother John is visiting, so it's a wonderful family time. Christmas dinner at our place tonight, including some friends, which is also awesome.
Good times. I hope yours are good as well.
(And here's looking back fifty (eep!) years at Apollo 8 and the most famous picture taken of our planet.)
