Thanks everyone for all of the responses!
The trick is to freeze the bread. In fact, everyone said this! Cool the
loaf completely and then slice and freeze individual slices in air tight
containers. When ready to eat, thaw in the microwave or toaster. Several
recommended freezing individual slices on a cookie sheet before storing.
Another tip was to refrigerate the loaf of bread for 24 hours to help
preserve freshness.
Thanks again and Happy Holidays to all!
