And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow,
stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so?

It came without ribbons, it came without tags.
It came without packages, boxes or bags.

And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore.
Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before.

What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store.
What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?

~ Dr. Seuss

Or hit by a car...Oh, wait, they didn't ask if you had a car, and did it
pass a safety inspection recently.

Something else about Christmas to think about:

"Every day is Christams - If one's heart is right"

Merry Christmas everyone and God Bless you and yours.

Marie and I are blessed to have had a 2nd chance to buy our farm.
Still hoping and more importantly praying to be able to build a garage.
Our 1970 Ultravan #520 has an Olds Toronado 455 in back.
