Happy Holidays!

It's not quite the winter solstice, but the days are pretty short and so is my free time to play with wood. I've managed to do some turning, carving, and pyrography over the past several days, but not nearly enough to make me happy. This time of year is sooooo busy with errands, getting ready for the start of winter quarter (I'm teaching a biogeography course), and taking care of details for the holidays.

We celebrate Christmas at our house, but also take joy in the other holidays that are associated with the winter solstice. Happy Holidays to all of you who check my blog from time-to-time. Emma's all dressed up for the occasion and is spreading good cheer to all. She sure made my day brighter by her reaction to her new hat. She went into major kissing mode from all the excitement of having something so unusual on her head. BTW, Emma is on Santa's "naughty" list.
