Seasons greetings cousins and friends,

My wife wrote a Christmas letter this year instead of the usual Christmas
card she normally sends. I guess I'm getting sentimental in my old age as
her letter expresses my inter-thoughts better than I ever could. With
this,
I wish all of you have a very Merry Christmas and may the New Year bring
you health, wealth and the time to enjoy them.

Merry Christmas – Happy Holidays

And Love from Glory Mountain

It is early morning, the sun is peeking through, there is a light breeze

blowing making the oak leaves dance to the earth in their final performance

of the Spring / Summer Ballet. Soon the trees will be barren and the

grotesque shape of the stately old oaks will take on a new beauty.
Watching

the seasons change here in the mountains of Tehachapi fills me with such

joy. I can not tell you which season I like the most. Winter is beautiful –
the

silence that slips over these glorious hills as the snow falls. I never
dreamed

one could feel such completeness when we made the decision to move up

here. The hardest part was putting such a distance between the children,

grandchildren and our very dear friends. – Now it is the Christmas season

again and you are all on our minds. Christmas – So many Christmas

seasons we have all shared together and each year I seem to get a little
more

emotional. My dear friends you are in our thoughts. – We wish you well, we

wish you joy, fulfillment and love.

With a smile in our hearts,

Del, Lennie, Scott and Scooter Black and Benny too.
