And a Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone from here as well. I've been home a few minutes from the great holiday paper shredding competition that is Christmas Eve in my family. It took my pickup (full) and a bit more to carry all of my niece's stuff to her house. Mom got a 50" plasma and accessories for it. I got three shirts for a skinny guy, a chrome belt guard, tour pak and saddlebag lights and an Exigent bike cover for the Road Glide (yeah, I have to "help" others shop for me). Everyone in the family thinks they did quite fine.
Got home to relax and had to sit down here for a bit. Glad to share best wishes and happiness with so many friends and friendly acquaintances. It's been touching the cards that have come in from friends from the site and the phone calls and other messages that are shared. Christmas cards aren't my best thing so I'll always be behind on that score.
Thanks to everyone for taking the time to keep contact and for having the patience to be contacted. It's a special and unique community here. Thanks also to everyone for making it that special community. I'm enriched and entertained by the experience. For all that a simple thanks no doubt is not enought. But it's the best that I can do.
Thanks to eveyrone and Merry Christmas.
