It might not be a white Christmas here in Paris or in Dublin, where I’m headed tomorrow, but it was once white enough to build a giant Snow Queen in the garden of Effelstown Cottage, the Donnelly homestead, and to silence all movement in Amsterdam…
Merry Christmas everyone and a very, much needed, Happy New Year.

By now you are home in Dublin with your family. We are staying local this year, the cost of airfare from the States to CDG just too hot to handle. Wishing you and your family the healthiest, happiest, and most peaceful of holidays and new year. Let there be peace on Earth.
Merry Christmas et Bonnee Annee 2017 mon ami!
