The Quest to Recapture My Christmas Spirit Begins!

The bags are packed, the Linc-Mobile fueled, and the letter to Santa requesting the girl of my dreams for my present this year (or a bajillion gabullion dollars) has been mailed. :-D Tomorrow I’m off to Stockbridge, Massachusetts to kick off a New England-style Christmas weekend.
