I am very much enjoying reading about you and your 'travel's'. You have a lot of inspirational information here. I am helped very much today by the fact that sometimes God's lesson is sometimes for the people we encounter/meet in life.<br />Thank you for sharing your times and events with us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-23854673577808916432007-12-26T18:34:00.000+00:002007-12-26T18:34:00.000+00:00Such beautiful images, full of Christmas cheer and...Such beautiful images, full of Christmas cheer and joy! I admire your perseverance, 70 cards stamped, quite a feat!<BR/>I did the tree-trimming the Austrian way, well almost: I started on the Evening of the 23rd and finished the afternoon of the 24th. I put most of our glass ornaments up now, leave other decorations in the box. It's always a joy to meet to see the tree up again, like seeing an old friend.<BR/>May our Christmas be a blessed one, full of joy and family!Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-552965560066437582007-12-21T06:36:00.000+00:002007-12-21T06:36:00.000+00:00BarbaraYour cards are so nice and the decorations ...Barbara<BR/>Your cards are so nice and the decorations are beautiful.I would love to be your neighbor :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01013538467052539566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-21048347290890271582007-12-19T20:09:00.000+00:002007-12-19T20:09:00.000+00:00Your decorations look lovely.
