Here's my concrete Pagoda, in the cedar hedge, with the Dec. 9th snowfall.

Here's my patio and cedar hedge, with the Dec. 9th snowfall.

Here's the front, with my favorite brother (Hey. I'm his only brother) helping me shovel. In the next 3 days, we
got 40 more cm.

Some of my neighbours get all excited about decorating. You can't tell here, that around the front door are
chaser lights.

Across the street. Behind the Santa, Mrs. Santa and geese(!) is a Nativity Scene.
|
|
Back in the house, tree and Nativity scene - currently the only furniture in the living room. That'll change. |
|
Close-up of the Nativity Scene. Since when is a bag-piper traditional?

Christmas Day itself was spent with the Evans (+1) adoptive ex-Maritime family. That's:
|
Judy
|
Lynn
|
and Mel (the cook!)
|
|
|
|
Judy loves her bear...
|
Elmo the cat thinks the fountain is for him... |
And I got a stocking with my name on it! (The final "e" is hidden, due to it being full of stuff!)

|
Loot. I mean, largess (TM Judy's Mom). |
|
Lynn and Mel got me this. It disturbs even me. Note the ingredient list. Yes, it's a real
dead cricket. I don't know when (if ever) I'll eat it.
