Any special plans for Christmas?

No, going to our son's house for a few hours and then back home

No, going to our son's house for a few hours and then back home

I am sure that will be enjoyable though. It's always good to be with family.

Good evening folks

Yes, it will be nice to see them . Two hour drive doesn't sound long, but the hips and knees sure don't like it for either of us.

So you were playing "Balderdash"! Did anyone fall for the fake definitions?

Not quite ‘Balderdash’, although it did get mentioned. I displayed the words one at a time and they had to guess.

I wonder which version you knew?

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.
So twice five miles of fertile ground
With walls and towers were girdled round:
And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills,
Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;
And here were forests ancient as the hills,
Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.

Or

How quickly we all forget......

I did say Coleridge ~ somewhere back there.

Wow!! Tightrope walking!!

Wow!! Tightrope walking!!

Yes. He owes tax too.

The first of the promised Christmas storms just rolled through.
The girls all huddled tightly against the back door where they could see me.

Good morning/evening everyone
