I have nine inches stacked up in my yard with drifts of nearly three feet on the lee of some buildings. I think I can only remember one other white Christmas in my neck o' th' woods. Ya'll have a great one (but stay warm and stay safe).

If I'm doing this right, here are a couple of shots of the aftermath of our "blizzard" (the National Weather Service's words...not mine) . Quite a White Christmas, huh? Well, for around here...our Northern buddies would probably laugh. Merry Christmas, stay warm, and stay safe, all!

Merry Christmas everyone!
Natalie, Devan, Stef and I had a rockin' snowball fight yesterday morning in Gainesville. That little girl has a good arm!!! Stef and I were both covered from head to toe. I'll try to post pictures later.

We kinda wound up doing Christmas a day late, as I got stuck out on the road overnight on Christmas Eve.
The snow isn't so pretty from the seat of a big truck, not when it's coming down sideways...
Got blocked in by wrecks just west of Putnam about 4pm, sat there waiting until they got the road cleared, at 10 am Christmas Day. It was a long, miserably cold night. Clear, but cold and windy.
But, on the bright side, something pretty cool happened. I got to witness something kinda special.
We waited for the road to get cleared of wrecks for a long time, then it started to get dark....
As it became clear to everyone that we were gonna be here all night, people came together.
Drivers were checking on 4wheelers, inviting them into their trucks if they were low on gas.
Sharing food and water, people just taking time to help a stranger.
All of us stuck in the same boat, all of us spending Christmas night stuck on the interstate in the middle of nowhere.
It was really kinda fitting after all. People showing goodwill toward their fellow man, caring for one another, sharing what they could to help someone else.
Under a starry, cold sky, I was reminded of what Christmas is all about. That was something that doesn't happen very often anymore........

And that, my friends, is what Christmas miracles are made of.
Peace and goodwill toward all.
