 Found THIS at WM - Got a couple of extra bottles for Jared to make the "Ruby Pears"

 Our first fire in the new wood stove downstairs.   Working out very nicely....

 This is about we could manage for a Christmas tree this year.

 Found the books in the storage container..   so glad to have them back in the bookshelves - need to organize a bit....(I'll worry about that tomorrow.....")

 So relieved to get the storage room back into the house - worried about it freezing and probably got it in just in time.
