Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone!  Just had to share a few things with you this morning from the island... this Christmas tree is a traditional coastal Maine Christmas tree that is made of lobster traps, lobster buoys, pine boughs and lights.  O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree!  I'll let you guess what is sometimes put at the top! 

Next, we have a few clips for your enjoyment... snowboarding in Paris, and a couple clips from my favorite silent film of 1926, 'Der Heilge Berg' (The Holy Mountain).  Be sure to at least make it to the 5:10 mark!

Finally...

O come, Desire of nations, bind
In one the hearts of all mankind;
O bid our sad divisions cease,
And be for us our King of Peace.
Rejoice!  Rejoice! Emmanuel,
Shall come to thee, O Israel.


Have a peaceful Christmas...
