A small collection of the many good things in the life of this old sailor. These items may be current or from the past, if I liked them or am fond of them they are eligible to be here.

The Start Of The Season
Down from the attic the boxes came. Large or small, green or red, cardboard or plastic, long or short, they all came into the house on their annual pilgrimage. Two trees to pick from. This year we will use the shorter 6 1/2 foot already lighted tree that we did not use last year. It will be on blocks to look taller.
The blocks are ceramic pots normally used for plants. However, in this case they are pressed into service by the Blushing Bride.
Items, old and new are carefully hung in accordance with the hangers vision.
One fantastic work of art courtesy of my Blushing Bride. Now all it needs are some gaily wrapped boxes underneath it. Well that and some smiling little guys and gals running around it.
The tree seems to have met with local approval.
May you all have a very Merry Christmas.
