Christmas Tree 2003

This was our tree and part of our living room area last year on Christmas Day. Note the "green Christmas" out the window - with the exception of the little bit of white from left over snowbanks from earlier in the month. I'll compare with this years tree and SNOW out the window tomorrow if I get on here. :)

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

The "Man" I Met in Frankenmuth

"To send me a joe who had winter and snow in his heart wasn't smart..."

If you know your "White Christmas" lyrics, you'll recognise that line from Rosemary Clooney's "Love You Didn't Do Right By Me" solo from near the end of the movie. ANYWAY, that is the snowman I met in Frankenmuth, Michigan in August of this year. (There's a gigantic Christmas store there for anybody confused by the snowman in August thing.) It seems like a festive enough pic to display now seeing there is actually some snow on the ground here for the mo'. Ah well... "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas..."

Angle Parking

Did you know that angle parking is more prominent at shopping centres in Gander, Newfoundland than parallel parking? That's just one of the many interesting things I learned during the band trip there in May 2004.

The Mystery Coin

This is my recently acquired mystery coin. I have decided that this is my new investigative mission - to figure out what it is. Any ideas? Please leave a comment or contact me in some other way. Thanks!!!
