We had a very, very pleasant Christmas, during the drive up to Brainerd where her one Niece lives, the hoare frost was beautiful.
Another Niece came up from Texas with her long term boyfriend Jean Claude -- well -- actually his name is Jeff but way back, when Sharon told me her niece had a boy friend now, she said she thought he was French, SO, I named him Jean Claude.
First time I saw him at a wedding I said you must be Jean Claude, which he found was very funny.
I was a bit amazed at the traffic on Christmas Day, but with a speed limit of 65, traffic moved along at 80 in the daytime and 75 at night.
Sharon's nephew was home with mom and dad for the holiday, but they spoke of his coming wedding at Hillsdale, Mich. next spring.
He is only 21 and his dad and I agreed he had peed away the joy of a young dude finding out what life is like.
He will work for an insurance company in the Twin Cities and he and his Frauline are looking for a place to live that is as far from the slough that Minneapolis has become but still not too far out.
Today is the Second Day of Christmas so , Merry Christmas!!!
