Merry Christmas!.

If only I had a photographer and a Christmas tree, I could treat you to a festive new page for the holiday, but this year for me there is no tree, no photographer, no Santa...

Even though times are tough (ok, not so tough, but without a photographer new pictures don't happen) you've all been so very very good this year that I wanted to give you something special for Christmas.

I dug deep into my files and found these photographs my friend Virgil took of me treating myself to an icecream cone at Bill Mack's.

  The cone barely held the five flavors selected: raspberry, strawberry, peach, butter pecan, and choolate chip mint.  It was hard enough to narrow my selection down to those five.  You know how I hate making decisions.

The boy behind the counter did everything he could to balance my ice cream on the cone (and would have tried to add a sixth scoop if I really wanted him to) but I knew I would already have to lick fast if I didn't want to be covered in sticky sweet ice cream.

As my ice cream started to melt, the poor clerk tried to decide what to charge me.  Would you believe they don't have a price for a five scoop cone on their menu?

  Virgil took lots of pictures while the other customers watched in wonder and tried to figure out what was so interesting about a big fat woman eating an ice cream cone.

I hope you enjoy this page as much as I enjoyed my ice cream.

Merry Christmas!
