Our Christmas day


Christmas in Georgia was quiet.  Decorations consisted of small ornaments with special significance:  a felt rendition of our former cruising sailboat CHOUETTE made years ago by a friend, a stained glass Charlie, a new porcelain Spark and a toller Christmas card.

Other special ornaments were the sweetgrass rose given to me by a homeless man in Charleston, SC near the Mother Emmanuel Church, site of the June massacre (see my post entitled "A tribute to the victims") and a sweetgrass wreath.  And a little greenery for the "rig".

Feeling patriotic in 24 degree (celcius)weather on Christmas day.


 A beautiful nature walk...among the live oak trees and the marshes.
Christmas dinner: turkey breast roasted in our convection oven, homemade cranberry sauce with clementines and cloves, sweet potatoes with candied Georgia pecans and a kale salad.  Yum!!!  Dessert was sweet potato pie.  Delicious!
