Christmas in Atlanta




We've now been in the Atlanta area for three days, visiting with Keith's family, celebrating Christmas and enjoying relaxing times with loved ones. We attended a beautiful Christmas Eve church service with full band and lots of joyous singing, and today---Christmas Day---was simply a feast of good food, cheer and excellent company. 

With the rig parked in the driveway, we have the entire house to relax in, do laundry, stretch out, and relish the expansiveness of a cozy home. It's a novel experience for which we're very grateful. Tina is especially enjoying the luxury of being in a house, not to mention the turkey and treats that come her way! 

We are blessed to have family with whom to spend the holidays, and we don't take that blessing for granted. We acknowledge that there are so many people who are sick, lonely, bereft, or otherwise suffering, and Christmas is a very good time to recognize one's gifts and give thanks for the abundance in one's life. We are lucky and blessed indeed, and time with family is irreplaceable. 


And before we forget, today marks 8 weeks on the road! 

Happy Holidays to all, and to all a good night!
