The winter holidays are upon us and we’re trying to
appreciate every moment. After all, there will never be another year that we
spend our very first Christmas at the Happy House in Talent, Oregon. Accordingly,
we bought a poinsettia the very first day they were featured at the greenhouse
and put out our Christmas bear a tad earlier than was probably tasteful. We
took part as our cute little town had a Christmas tree lighting ceremony
(complete with carolers, Santa, hot cider and cookies) and a holiday bazaar with
knitted, jeweled and handcrafted things (including local wine). We added to the
festivities by stringing up lights on the house and putting a bright little
tree in the window, but our most important seasonal observance is acknowledging
with true gratitude the good fortune that is ours.
In addition to practicing carols on ukulele to sing with the
family, we made a quick recording of a Christmas song written by Andi last year
on December 27th. The song is called “An Island Christmas” and you
may have already heard us play it for you in person. If not, feel free to checkout our seasonal gift of music by clicking here.
Our kindest thoughts and warmest wishes are with you at the beginning
of another winter and a brand new year. May you and yours know great joy and
contentment in the days to come. Look for our next BusRoads notes from the sunny
south! ~
Brian and Andi
