Sharon,

I'm writing on the list so other's, who are interested, will be able to read 
our exchanges.  I didn't think I had heard Idaho was in the winter snow but 
boy the rest of the nation is.  We had Christmas Eve, we open presence on 
Christmas Eve and half a big dinner, over at my son's home in our backyard 
on his side of the lot.  Anyhow, one of our grandchildren, Anthony, who is 
one of my son's adopted boys, has his birthday on December 24 so he has a 
fun time with that and extra gifts.  The dinner was wonderful, we all ate 
too much, and are now trying to stay warm.  Sandy is fixing another big 
dinner we will eat in a couple of hours.  At a little after 4 PM, it is 26 
degrees and going down to perhaps as low as 7 degrees tonight.  So this is 
the coldest Christmas in decades in Denver.

Phil.
